2017 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Artemis Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, USA (1.5L MAGNUM)

Plum, mocha and turned earth highlight the palate of this robust, full-bodied and powerfully broad red wine, tense in firm tannin and a cradling of toasted oak. The acidity helps to balance its heft, leaving a note of lasting freshness on the spicy finish.

Artemis is a solid, respectable expression of modern Napa Valley Cabernet (with 4% Merlot and 1% Malbec), made using both estate and purchased fruit. Black cherries, dark chocolate and roasted espresso aromas lead to an earthy palate, more terroir-driven than the ripe, modern nose suggests. It’s aged for 16 months in 40% new French barrels and a small amount of American oak. Drinking Window 2020 - 2035
