Note di degustazione
100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Very appetising and quite subtle on the nose. Vegy grasses on the nose and lively interest – dances! – on the palate. I suspect this could make a bordeaux alongside look a bit dull and stodgy. Fresh and fun. Definitely not sweet. (JR)

The compact 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Hirondelle Estate has a dark ruby color, notes of red and black cherries, loamy soil underbrush and moderate tannin. It is one-dimensional but pleasant. Drink now-2030.
Clos Du Val's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is intense, powerful and yet medium in body, as wines from this vintage tend to be. I would give the 2014 at least a year or two in bottle, as the wine comes across as a bit sinewy and shut down relative to how it tasted from barrel. This is an impressive, classically proportioned Stags Leap Cabernet endowed with lovely precision and brightness.
