Heritage & History

Featured Wines

Bold blackcurrant, cassis, and dark cherry with notes of tobacco and cedar. Firm tannins and vibrant acidity provide structure and depth.

The 1999 Stag's Leap District Merlot opens with exuberant aromas of dark berry fruit, dried blackberry, and hints of dusty mushroom. On the palate, it is intense and layered, offering flavors of ripe berry, chocolate, and savory, meaty undertones. The wine’s structure is defined by fine-grained tannins that emerge with aeration, providing both softness and backbone. The finish is long and persistent, marked by a harmonious balance of fruit, earth, and subtle oak, making it both intellectually engaging and deeply pleasurable to drink.[1][2][3][4]

The 2010 Winemaker Series Merlot opens with generous aromas of ripe plums and red fruits, complemented by notes of toffee, nutmeg, and tobacco. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a juicy mouthfeel, featuring supple tannins that provide structure without overwhelming the fruit. The finish is long and layered, revealing dried cranberry and hints of clove, while subtle oak influences add depth and complexity. This Merlot is both approachable and age-worthy, offering a harmonious balance of fruit, spice, and earth.

Deep black fruit, plum, and spice with earthy undertones and firm tannins. Rich and structured, with a persistent, savory finish.
