STAG'S LEAP CABERNET SAUVIGNON ARTEMIS 2022

STAG'S LEAP CABERNET SAUVIGNON ARTEMIS 2022Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon rarely leans this hard on a single high elevation source, but the 2022 Artemis pulls 73% of its fruit from Atlas Peak volcanic, red tinged basalt soils above 1,400 feet that run 1015F cooler than the valley floor during the growing season. The remaining fruit comes primarily from Arcadia Vineyard in Coombsville, rounding out a blend of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1. 5% Cabernet Franc, and 0. 5% Petit Verdot, aged 15 months

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon rarely leans this hard on a single high-elevation source, but the 2022 Artemis pulls 73% of its fruit from Atlas Peak — volcanic, red-tinged basalt soils above 1,400 feet that run 10–15°F cooler than the valley floor during the growing season. The remaining fruit comes primarily from Arcadia Vineyard in Coombsville, rounding out a blend of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1.5% Cabernet Franc, and 0.5% Petit Verdot, aged 15 months in 55% new French oak. The result opens with cassis, boysenberry, and cocoa, carries graphite and tobacco through the mid-palate, and finishes with polished, plush tannins.
