2022 Schrader Cellars Wappo Hill Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap District, Bottle (750ml)

DR95 "Sourced from the DN2 block at the base of the Hartwell Estate, this wine is terrifically lush with a dark-fruited profile and compelling layers of complexity. Notes of capsicum, fennel, and thyme mingle with tobacco and graphite, adding intrigue to the nose. Full-bodied, it boasts a rich core of loamy earth complemented by a host of ripe blueberry fruit, bay leaf, and firm, fine-grained tannins. The structure is beautifully framed by aspine of crisp, crunchy acidity, delivering balance and vibrancy—a wine with depth and poise." JC for DR Oct 2024
