2009 | Staglin Family Vineyard | Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (Magnum)

Linear and tight now with blackberries and blackcurrants, sage and fresh rosemary. Medium to full body, chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Tight and focused. Forest floor and mushrooms at the finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The dense blue/purple-colored 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate possesses a complex bouquet of black cherry and black currant liqueur, forest floor, baking spice and subtle background oak. This rich, complex, full-bodied 2009 is just beginning to open and show tertiary nuances. It should continue to age well for 20-25 years.

• Vinous: The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is bursting with primal energy. Sweet floral notes meld into juicy red berries, spice box and cedar, all of which are laced together with remarkable elegance. Silky tannins add to an impression of refinement and total finesse. In 2009, Staglin’s Cabernet Sauvignon impresses for its superb delineation and nuance. The 2009 can be enjoyed with minimum cellaring if given a few hours in decanter.

Producer Information

Staglin Family Vineyard is a Californian wine producer located in Rutherford, Napa Valley. It is most famous for its premium wines produced from Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Sangiovese. The 20-hectare (50-acre) vineyard passed through many different hands before the Staglin family became the proprietors in 1985 – including a Texan gold and oil tycoon on the run from the law in his home state, as well as the more respectable Beaulieu Vineyard. Located at the base of Mount St. John, the estate vineyard lies on an alluvial fan of volcanic soils. These soils, when combined with the area's unique mesoclimate, provides ideal growing conditions for vines with the first vineyard established as far back as the mid 1860s. The flagship Staglin Family Vineyard range includes Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon, the latter commonly blended with small portions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Other wine ranges in the collection include the Salus range with a Bordeaux Blend amoungst other varietal wines. Salus was named after the Roman goddess of health and wellbeing with profits for the Salus range contributed to the funding of mental health research.
