Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon 'Fay' 2019

Considered one of the "first growths" of Napa Valley, Stag's Leap Wine Cellars produces renowned Cabernet Sauvignon from its historic Stags Leap District estate vineyards.

Fay Cabernet Sauvignon delivers fragrant aromas of ripe raspberry and boysenberry along with hints of jasmine, gardenia and nutmeg. The wine has a lively mouthfeel with polished tannins, a juicy mid-palate and a silky finish bursting with red fruits and berries.

Try pairing this estate-grown Cabernet with baby back ribs with saba glaze, maple-soy glazed salmon or eggplant parmesan.

97 Points - Jeb Dunnuck

Just about pure perfection, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Fay reveals a vivid purple hue as well as spectacular aromatics of blueberries, black cherries, sappy herbs, and tobacco. Full-bodied and perfectly balanced, with a great mid-palate and building tannins, it’s another utterly classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from this estate that will benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age and evolve for 2-3 decades.

95 Points - James Suckling

Concentrated, with lots of black and purple fruit and crushed violets. Broodingly dark and youthful at this stage, but remains elegant. Fleshy, dense and full-bodied with a mouthful of finely polished tannins that dissipate into the black fruit. Silky, opulent texture here, with fresh, medium acidity.

93 Points - Wine Spectator

Packed with bramble, blackberry and black currant pâte de fruit notes, this has good energy, while lacings of licorice and mocha fill out the finish. 

92+ Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Fay Vineyard offers a perfumed nose marked by delicate purple raspberry notes and a touch more herbal, tea-like nuances than the 2018. It's medium to full-bodied in the mouth but delicate and elegant, with a long, silky finish.
