Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars, Napa Valley (California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

 The Fay Vineyard wines have always struck me as more on the red fruit side of the spectrum, with raspberry and cherry flavors ruling the day, and this vintage follows suit, adding cinnamon spice, a touch of mint and toasty oak that adds a coffee note.  Mouth filling, fleshy texture is tempered by bright acidity, and the fruit speaks clearly in dry style, with complementary oak spice and an extended finish that brings in some soft dried herbs that add complexity and depth.  A supple, serious glass that shows a unique aspect of the Stag’s Leap District.
