2018 Cabernet Sauvignon
Stags Leap District
This one-of-a-kind wine hails from our estate in the Stags Leap District nested appellation. Hand-selected Cabernet Sauvignon lot from old vines grown in Perkins gravelly loam soil makes for the ultimate combination of power and finesse. The wine is aging for 22 months in a Sylvain Collection barrel sourced from 300-year-old French oak.

Winemaking Philosophy:
As Odette Estate winemaker, Jeff Owens guides the style behind our Stags Leap District estate Cabernet Sauvignon wines as well as our Adaptation tier, sourced from top vineyards throughout Napa Valley. He firmly believes that the two most important elements behind these wines are distinctive terroirs and exceptional people involved at every step of the process, from cultivating vineyard rows to determining the final blends.
“Wines from Stags Leap District develop remarkable power and elegance, classic structure,” explains Jeff. “I’m looking forward to exploring every facet of our vineyard’s personality, and to helping design a new winemaking facility that enhances its unique expression.”
