2005 Cliff Lede "Poetry" Stag's Leap Cabernet Sauvignon
94 pts (WA) Even better is the 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Poetry. A 969-case blend of
96% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest equal parts Merlot and Petit
Verdot, this wine has sweet tannins, a big, rich kiss of blackberry and
creme de cassis interwoven with subtle smoke, graphite, and loamy soil
undertones. The wine has gorgeous purity, full-bodied flavors,
elegance, and finesse. Like great cuisine, it offer tremendous
intensity of flavor without any sense of heaviness or weight. Drink it
over the next 20+ years. Robert Parker Wine Advocate # 180 Dec 2008 This is a California Blend
