Interesting facts
S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon is a luxurious dry red wine made from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown on the historic S.L.V. vineyard in Napa Valley. The harvest is conducted exclusively by hand, and the berries undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The 2014 vintage was aged in new French oak barrels for 21 months. Structured tannins and pleasant minerality indicate this wine's ability to age well, presumably for 20-25 years.
About the Manufacturer
The Polish surname of the founder of Stag's Leap Cellars, Warren Winiarski, translates to 'son of the winemaker.' However, Warren had no plans to become a winemaker. He was interested in the humanities and studied at the University of Chicago. But fate had other plans. In 1964, Warren and his wife Barbara moved to California, joining a new wave of pioneers arriving in the valley. For the next few years, Warren gained practical experience in winemaking, first as an apprentice to Lee Stewart at Souverain Cellars, and then as an assistant at the newly established Robert Mondavi Winery. After his training, Warren Winiarski began searching for land capable of producing grapes for wines of classic proportions and balance, and in 1970 his search was successful. Two years later, Winiarski purchased a nearby winery. Thus, Stag's Leap Cellars was born. Today, the vibrant and harmonious wines of Stag's Leap Cellars, despite the youth of the winery, have gained popularity worldwide. The vineyards are located on diverse soils, allowing for the production of wines with individual and unique characters.
