Description

Your 2012 Hillside Select emerges from a classic Napa Valley vintage filled with warm, sunny days and perfect, chilly nights from spring through early autumn. The consistency of heat and coolness created a model growing season in which we harvested hillside Cabernet Sauvignon at ideal ripeness, brimming with rich color and flavors. After 10 years, the 2012 is pure opulence and polish, offering aromas of dark fruit and floral notes completed by core flavors of blackberry, cassis and black cherry along with delicate herbs, graphite and smoke. The wine is elegant and balanced as it moves through the mouth. The texture is seamless and light on its feet with classic Stags Leap District tannins.
