The Wine: The legendary Stagecoach Vineyard rises to an elevation of 1700 feet above the eastern portion of Napa Valley's Oakville district, stretching from the western side of Atlas Peak to the southern portion of Pritchard Hill. Cabernet Sauvignon grown on this site is prized for its intensity and complexity of flavor. A worthy successor to the highly praised 2004 vintage, this 2005 offering is tightly wound with good weigh and structure for the cellar. Given time to aerate in the glass, a classic nose of dark fruits, spice and pipe-shop tobacco emerges. The flavors of juicy plum or dark cherry are accented by bright acidity and firm yet pliant tannins. Notes of vanilla and caramel carry through the finish. Drink now with richer meats or lay down for the next 7-10 years (+). The Stats: Alc: 14.7% Total Acidity: 6.2 G/L pH: 3.64 RS: Nil Serve with: Rich beef or game, such as prime rib, venison or a grilled New York cut (buffalo perhaps?) as well as wine-braised wild mushrooms such as morel or chanterelle would pair well with this structured, flavorful Cabernet Sauvignon. 238 cases produced
