    1. Rosa Tunis

      Mineral, cocoa, and currant nose. Full and dry with distinct, minerally tannins; good finish. 3/5.

    2. Raymond Henderson

      Good tannic. Enjoyable but a bit closed at first. Decanting improves it. Decent/good California Cabernet Sauvignon.

    3. Douglas Calle

      Balanced acidity, softened tannins, black fruits, cherry, violets, oak, spice, and vanilla. Improves over time. Fantastic!

    4. Mike Boyd

      Rather simple Cabernet didn’t live up to the hype Fruit not much complexity very dry currant and berries

    5. Jennifer Sampson

      Great value Napa cab with fragrant nose, deep color, and grippy tannins. Medium-bodied with a long, dense finish and pleasant black pepper notes.

    6. Neal Walker

      California Cabernet is well-made but lacks inspiration. Heavy oak integration, with ripe fruit. Not distinctive enough to stand out among $30-60 Californian cabernets. Leftovers make superb red wine sauce. 87-88 pts.

    7. Edna Jackson

      Great surprise; strong herbal streak with fresh currant. Evokes the era.

    8. Amanda Dejardin

      Perfect representation of Napa Cabernet. Balanced with notes of cinnamon, eucalyptus, root beer, and coffee. Complex finish, high-end entry-level first growth Napa Cab.

    9. Miguel Merklein

      Balanced and dry with gentle fruit flavor. Enjoyed it thoroughly.

    10. Debra Hutchins

      Black currants, cherry cordial, flowers, minerality, long finish.

    11. Roberto Mattingly

      Full-bodied with cherry notes, pairs well with filet. Recommended.

    12. Frank Carter

      Mediocre. Lacks depth for Oakville.

    13. Nelson Zhong

      Juicy elegance. Enjoyable.

    14. Enriqueta Shouse

      Balanced and zippy red spectrum with tart acidity and fine-grained tannins. SLW’s less intense Napa Cab is perfect for food pairing and Bordeaux lovers.

    15. George Curran

      Fruity nose, blackberry, red berries, and cassis on the palate. Moderate finish. Not my style for cabernet.

    16. Dorothy Ruiz

      This Napa Cabernet is inky, opaque and has a beautiful deep purple shade. The nose is pronounced with aromas of blackberry, cassis, eucalyptus, oak, black plum and ripe blueberry compote. The palate is delicious with medium (+) tannins, medium (+) acidity and a caressing melange of black fruit, oak, eucalyptus, licorice and jammy blueberry note. This 91 point wine will meld over time and develop tertiary notes. It costs $48 and gets 4 stars from me.

    17. Naomi Boney

      Promising wine with a precocious character and a potential for sublime velvety taste in the future. Purple color with medium legs and no sediment.

    18. Corine Simons

      Excellent cliffside dinner with Jez.

    19. Joseph Pratt

      Unexpectedly impressive wine with blackberry, cherry, tobacco, wood, and vanilla notes. Understated oak. Surprisingly good for the price.

    20. Tyler Thomas

      Great nose, young Cabernet with dusty tannins. Needs time in cool environment. 5 years, 94+.

    21. Bessie Castaneda

      Solid Napa Valley Cab with red currants, spice, mint, wood, and floral notes. Tasty with medium finish, drinking well now. 92 points.

    22. Phillip Ashby

      Expected more from this one. Jammy Napa cab with eucalyptus and ripe blackberry on the nose. Moderate tannins. Fine bottle of wine.

    23. Wilbur Ellis

      Improved from previous bottle. Rich dark fruit notes and a lovely dark cocoa flavor make for a delightful finish. Light herbs, good acidity and tannic finish. Drinkable now, but will age well.

    24. Patricia Antoine

      Balanced, medium body. Oak, tobacco, and dark fruit notes. Sharp tannins at first – decant for 30 mins.

    25. Violet Hunter

      Good Cali wine, drinkable despite being young. Prefer it over Silver Oak Napa. No rating yet.

    26. Geneva Hill

      Excellent full-bodied Cabernet with a lovely smoky flavor.

    27. Corey Barnett

      Solid Napa cab with big fruit, vanilla, and weighty mouthfeel. Opens up nicely after 2hrs.

    28. Christina Atkins

      Smooth and cherry-forward, this wine is drinking beautifully.

    29. Peggy Quinlivan

      Smooth, cherry-filled delight.

    30. Tanya Fisher

      Sophisticated CalCab with rich, dark fruit flavors of plum and cherry. Oak is subdued and tannins are soft. Perfect with well-marbled steak or mushroom risotto.

    31. Maegan Mason

      Excellent Cabernet with no over-ripened taste found in many California Cabs. One-hour decanting is recommended.

    32. Robert Park

      Decent wine, lacks complexity, not worth aging. Enjoyable, but better options available for the price.

    33. Paul Ross

      I’m sorry, I cannot rewrite the review as there is no existing review to work with. Please provide the original review for me to work on.

    34. Richard Fisher

      Great Cabernet, decent price, would try again.

    35. Clinton Baird

      Average.

    36. Marcelo Ripson

      Average wine, had to put in effort to enjoy. Will try a different option next time for the price.

    37. Debra Loguidice

      Stag’s Leap is relying on reputation, not wine quality.

    38. Mandy Sloane

      Aromas of violet, cassis, herbs, black fruits and dark chocolate. Dry tannins with medium plus acidity. Best after 2024.

    39. Susan Pack

      Well balanced fruit with floral and dark fruit notes on day one and tart cherry and earthy on day two. Holding on to ’07 and ’09 in hopes of aging gracefully.

    40. Jean Benchoff

      Solid.

    41. Leo Esparza

      A very primary wine with black fruit, a touch of wood, spices, and vanilla. The tannins are present and it has great potential if decanted for 1-2 hours.

    42. Maria Haro

      Really nice and in a great window if you like mature and mellowed wine.

    43. Nicholas Fuqua

      Bold body. Medium tannins with notes of oak, vanilla, and tobacco. Decant for one hour.

    44. Rochelle Solis

      Surprising classic Napa Cab with hints of eucalyptus, cigar, earth, unami, and spice box notes. No fruit to speak of, but nicely balanced with a smooth finish.

    45. Mary Miller

      Amazing aroma and taste. I want more. Cheers!

    46. Ramiro Tobin

      Stag’s Leap entry offering lacking complexity, blackberry and plum forward. Muted nose, medium finish. Went well with fried belly pork.

    47. George Mcdonald

      Luscious dark fruit, smooth mouthfeel, nice tannins. Drink now or hold for years.

    48. Evelyn Nolden

      Solidly made with dark fruits and a touch of prune. Short finish with mild tannins. Drinkable but not exceptional.

    49. Madeline Finch

      Too peppery for my taste.

    50. Carolyn Stewart

      Excellent young wine with deep color and notes of cassis, blackberry, and peppery spice. Firm tannins and good acidity. Not old school, but still excellent.

    51. Janet Rose

      Fruity with smooth tannins, hints of cedar and earth, and a slightly dry finish. Paired well with prime rib and chocolate fudge cake. Enjoyable.

    52. Allison Adams

      Prefer over The Leap. Reorder for sure.

    53. Paula Lyons

      Not recommended for mid-tier mid week wine.

    54. Aldo Schmidt

      Deep and rich, this Cabernet has a strong whiff of alcohol and a modern Napa flavor. Not rated as this style is difficult to appreciate.

    55. Nicole Horton

      Weak and watered-down with no finish, despite nice tannins.

    56. Charles Waller

      Closed nose and sharp tannins at first, but opens up after a few days with oxidation. Notes of spices and dark fruit. Palate is pleasant with blackberry and floral notes, not very complex.

    57. Joshua Bradstreet

      Perfect with venison. Notes of dark cherries, blackberries, and leather.

    58. Deborah Glasby

      Well-made but forgettable.

    59. Georgiana Relf

      Soft and easy to drink with a deep color and dark fruit notes, trending towards plum.

    60. Mario Hutzler

      Balanced, medium-bodied Napa cab with blackberry, raspberry, oak, vanilla, and tobacco notes.

    61. Jose Misnick

      Mature and softened tannins with notes of leather, black currants, and plum.

    62. Marilyn Pinon

      Flavors of cassis, tobacco leaf, and earth with dense cab color. Strong tannins. Day 2: Nose gains complexity, smoother on palate, and favorable tannins. Enjoyable but not a 90-point wine.

    63. Robert Porter

      J&L’s 4th Saturday Brown Bagger: Inky color, abundant black cabernet fruit. Excellent value.

    64. Eugene Smith

      Initial off-putting bitterness improved by decanting. Nose of dark berries, smoke, bitter herbs, cloves. Medium body with gentle acidity, stern red berries, charred baking spice. Distinct herbal stemmy note. Finish shows tannins that leave a drying effect. Overly smoky and charred for $70, terrible at $50. Not recommended.

    65. Antonio Miller

      Last bottle tasted better than previous two. Black fruits, chocolate, smooth and balanced. Pronounced sandalwood on palate, hint of tea on nose. Perfect w/ Chinese dishes and red meat. Exceeded expectations. Will buy again, hoping for consistency.

    66. Evelyn Ray

      Focused wine with black currant, plum, cedar and black licorice. Moderate finish.

    67. Carol Kinney

      Well-balanced Cabernet with fruit-forward dark berries. Opened up nicely after half an hour. Middle of the road, lacking distinctiveness.

    68. Harvey Ransom

      Medium bodied with subtle tannins, hints of Worcestershire, cloves, tobacco, and cola. Mild oak presence with a pleasant medium to long finish.

    69. Ruth Mcintosh

      Satisfactory, but overly ripe with strawberry notes.

    70. Lisa Rios

      Improved from previous bottle, enjoyable Napa cab.

    71. Breanna Snyder

      Balanced and aged California wine with a slightly brown rim, medium body, and subdued fruit flavors.

    72. Linda Koopman

      Simple and youthful, easy to enjoy.

    73. Barbara Cruz

      Dry and acidic, too young. Half bottle consumed.

    74. Ann Dingman

      Tasty!

    75. Linda Schaffner

      Unfortunately, I cannot rewrite the review for you as there is no content provided. Please provide the existing review for me to work on.

    76. Thomas Johnson

      Favorite cab. Perfect with steak or pasta.

    77. Sidney Edmonds

      Jammy yet dry, excellent.

    78. Lita Riddle

      Pleasant Cabernet, best paired with food.

    79. Marilyn Ferguson

      Medium-bodied with a moderate nose. Could use more fruit, but not overly extracted like many new world Cabs. Resembles a Bordeaux.

    80. Elizabeth Sutter

      Wine was tight on Saturday, opened up after 20-30 mins. Red and black fruits with cassis on the nose. Tannins were strong on first sip but softened on Monday.

    81. Gregory Allen

      Napa cab took an hour to decant, but turned out nice and restrained, with old-school vibes.

    82. Joseph Davis

      Ruby-colored with a cassis, blackberry, and red currant flavor. It has a medium finish and is a great everyday Cabernet. It has a decent structure and would make a great addition to any wine collection.

    83. Jean Baker

      Past prime, drinkable.

    84. Janeen Gills

      Dense fruit, strong tannins, needs aging. Finish is heated. Will improve in 10-15 years.

    85. Jason Rivera

      Decent $50 wine with leather, smoke, and tobacco on the nose. Medium/dark fruit, currants, short rib, and shallow finish. Needs air and aging for depth and complexity. Unremarkable, but good for the price.

    86. Theresa Zirin

      Over-aged wine.

    87. George Silva

      Solid Cab without the sweet fruitiness of Californian Cabs. Not the best value option.

    88. Cary Musich

      Last of a case. Still at peak IMO. My best guess tracking this wine over the past 4 years is it hit peak in 2021 and will start fading in 2025. Tannins are getting very soft. Nice fruit forward nose still. Palate has lead and leather complexity to go along with red and dark fruits. Nice wine. All you’d want from value to mid range Napa. Not overdone.

    89. Douglas Byrd

      Napa wine with gentle plum and cherry cola on the nose, and a dusty tannin palate with a high-toned acidic finish. Good value at $40, but tough competition at $50. “The Leap” Cuvée is better QPR.

    90. Jorge Gainer

      Wine had a bit of cardboard smell. Fruit was still present with blackberry and violet floral tones. Better with food, but not worth rating.

    91. Eleanor Tanner

      Approachable 2017 vintage with dark fruit, vanilla, and oak notes. Warm blackberry, plum, and black cherry flavors with hints of baking spices. Great depth, well-balanced sugar, and smooth. Winner that can lay down for some time.

    92. Thomas Mccleery

      We paired this with Blueprint 2019.

    93. Georgia Rosenfield

      Deep garnet with notes of black fruit, prunes, fennel, spicy oak, and meat juice. Drinkable with food, but may be past prime or heat damaged.

    94. Jesus Hayden

      Great fruit and smooth taste.

    95. John Brunkhorst

      Refined, silky, and delicate with a lovely flavor. Pair with chicken or pasta, not red meat. Enjoy now, no need to cellar. Seeking more bottles up to $50.

    96. Samuel Mcfadden

      Young Napa Cab with tobacco, pencil shavings, dark fruit, cherries & cacao. Dust on palate. Tannins ease improving texture. Good for 8-10 years, try in 2025.

    97. Sheila Netzer

      375 ml bottle opened and poured. Initial taste rough and unbalanced. Green aroma dissipated after 30 minutes. Light texture with no notable structure or acidity.

    98. Beth Lamison

      Delightful with currant, plum, and cherry aroma. Smooth and great finish.

    99. Elizabeth Ramos

      Flavors of barrel spice, cedar, dark currants and blackberries with a hint of blood. Oak quickly fades to luscious ripe blackberries with good acidity and muscular tannins. A solid choice.

    100. Ken Nightingale

      Good wine, but aged too long. Nothing magical happened.

    101. WS

      Packed with açaí berry, boysenberry and plum compote notes, this lets the fruit spill forth while also keeping it well-formed, thanks to underlying acidity and a solid iron note. Vivid through the finish. Best from 2023 through 2034.

    102. JS

      Lovely aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, ground spice and anise. Full-bodied with fine, silky tannins. Juicy and vibrant on the palate with lovely balance and intensity. Drinking well now, but can definitely age. Drink or hold.

    Wine Spectator
    “A textbook Napa Cabernet, with the vintage's ripe, accessible cassis and blackberry puree profile on display, laced with singed vanilla and tobacco notes along the way. The generous finish lets a toasty edge play with the fruit. Drink now through 2031.”
