The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Ganymede Vineyard comes across a tightly wound, with less of the pure charm it showed from barrel. Still, there are plenty of Stags Leap signatures in the glass. Intensely perfumed and crystalline, the 2013 Ganymede is a striking Cabernet to drink over the next two decades or so. The finely-sculpted style is hugely appealing.
Winemaker Elizabeth Vianna called 2013 'a relaxed season and harvest'. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon picked 23-27 Sep. 32-38 day maceration. 18 months new French oak. To be bottled May 2015? Dark purple. Big, bold and sweet but with very marked tannins – not nearly ready to drink. Lots to integrate. A baby still. (JR)
A spine of firm, incisive tannins gives the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Ganymede Vineyard much of its energy, focus and drive. Graphite, pencil shavings, dark fruit and violets are all laced together in a rich, massively tannic Cabernet that stands out for the way it brings together purity with sheer size.
