2016 Block 27 Cabernet Sauvignon

2016 Block 27 Cabernet Sauvignon

As seasoned farmers, we carve up our vineyard into little sections, called “blocks,” to keep track of distinct characteristics like grape varietal and vine age. Tucked away amongst acres of renowned Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon, lies our most magical parcel; Block 27, which defies all explanation. Maybe it’s the dirt, maybe it’s the exact sunlight, but this special little block produces some of the best Cabernet Sauvignon in the entire world. We’ve learned to let go and just accept that sometimes, the earth just knows best

Made entirely from Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine boasts aromas of rich raspberry, red currant, violets and freshly smashed blueberries. On the palate, you will enjoy intense blackberry flavors intermingled with mocha, creamy coconut and cedar. This intense, yet refined wine, displays character you would expect from Stags Leap District with a soft, accessible soul.

I have been enjoying the wines of the Stags Leap Appellation for 35 years. They all, for the most part, have a certain distinction which boasts the pedigree of the district. However, the 2016 Block 27, rises above mere stereotypical Stags. Yes, the “smashed” berries with floral notes are omnipresent in the nose. The palette experiences concentrated fruit that lingers long after the wine has passed your lips. This one is special. Shhh! Let’s keep this one a secret!
