Last night, a buddy of mine who’s a Disabled Veteran and Registered Architect, announced that he was assuming control of a SDVOSB Architecture firm. He had spent the better part of a year of trying to reach a purchase agreement. So it was an evening of celebration. He’s been a Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars fan for some time and he planned to pull the cork on a few bottles. We had a couple of rando bottles too but all were California Cabernet Sauvignon. The last of the group and third SLWC bottle from the 2014 vintage. To my palate, distinctively different than the previous two which had much more in common but make no mistake, this is still very good. Lush and shamelessly approachable. I think this is only available to SLWC club members but not 100% sure.

Interesting wine from SLWC. Needs a little time. Good, but could use some age.
