Stag's Leap Wine Cellars
Fay Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Excellent Cab with both old and new world nuances. Strong blueberry and black fruit but a refined finish. Complex and delicious. WBA

3 people found it helpfulMar 23rd, 2014This poor bottle has been with me for years, in several different locations (closet, refrigerator, basement, wine fridge...) figured I'd put it out of its misery finally. Seemed like I killed it on opening, but really blossomed with air. Ripe concentrated cassis and dark herbal elements. Wish I could have (properly) held on to this a little longer

Oct 21st, 2018Very smooth Cab. More fruit-forward and on the green side but very nice texture and balance. A bit of herbal notes like vegetable leaves and also baking spices. Dark ruby color, soft tannin, long finish. Very enjoyable.

Dec 24th, 2018Fantastic wine - sweet with tones of blackberry and strawberry... but also a little dry. Highly recommended!

Oct 5th, 2016Likely the best I've ever had, it's another level of smooth. Rich full bodied.
