Note di degustazione
Leading off the Cabernets and from a site in the Stags Leap AVA, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Wildfoote Vineyard offers a thrilling bouquet of blueberries and blackcurrants to go with complex white flowers, violets, and hints of chocolate. With no hard edges, full body, and beautiful fruit, this Cabernet shines for its incredible finesse and elegance yet certainly doesn’t lack for power. It’s a brilliant wine.

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Wildfoote Vineyard Vixen Block is a rich, exotic wine loaded with Stags Leap character. Black cherry, plum, new leather, spice and menthol all flesh out in this potent, dark wine. Dark red and purplish berry fruit and floral notes add brightness. Today, the Wildfoote comes across as quite closed following its bottling, but there is every reason to think it will blossom in a few years' time, as there is quite a bit of energy and persistence. (AG)
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Wildfoote Vineyard is deep purple-black in color and scented of fragrant cassis, crushed black cherries and blackberries with touches of violets, cigar box and pencil lead. The medium to full-bodied palate gives cassis and earth with firm, fine-grained tannins, finishing long and with great purity. 383 cases produced.
