The top cuvee, the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Solo (100% Cabernet Sauvignon), is a classic example of a Stags Leap offering. Elegant but substantial, with notes of spring flowers, blueberries, black currants, and subtle barrique, it cuts a broad swath across the palate, but is light on its feet. Refreshing and delicate despite serious flavor intensity, it can be drunk now or cellared for 12-15 years.Tel. (707) 257-1770; Fax (707) 257-1538

Firm and compact, with dried currant, anise, mineral and pencil lead notes that turn tight on the finish, with minerally tannins. Drink now through 2011. 1,446 cases made. -JL

This is 100% Cabernet, hence the name. It’s direct in its appeal, with cassis and new oak flavors that are wrapped into significant tannins. It’s a nice, rich wine, but not a great one. Despite every effort, the heat has taken its toll, making it overly soft and a little cooked. Drink now.
