It was established in 2002 by Canadian construction magnate Cliff Lede, and produces wines from Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc. The most famous wine is the flagship Cabernet Sauvignon: Poetry. When Lede bought the property, he asked famed viticulturalist David Abreu to replant the 24 hectares (60 acres) of vineyards. These vineyards cover steep slopes in the Stags Leap AVA, and are planted on shallow volcanic soils that stress the vines and result in concentrated, complex fruit. The estate is made up of two vineyards, the Poetry vineyard and the Twin Peaks vineyard, and each are separated into blocks named after some of Lede's favorite songs and albums – giving them the nickname the \"Rock Blocks\". In addition to Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc, a tiny amount of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot is grown as well. The Cliff Lede winery was completed in 2005. Grapes are hand-sorted then evaluated by a Pellenc optical sorting machine, which only selects the grapes that are within the parameters set by the winemaker. The grapes are fermented in tanks based on the design of Château Latour, before being aged in new French oak. The Sauvignon Blanc is fermented in concrete eggs, giving a distinct minerality to the finished wines. The wines, particularly the flagship Poetry, regularly receive good reviews from the press, with the American wine critic Robert Parker calling the Cabernet Sauvignon \"bottled perfection\" and awarding the 2013 vintage with 100 points. Cliff Lede purchased the Savoy Estate in Alexander Valley in 2011. This led to the establishment of FEL Wines.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-27T17:13:37-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-25T13:41:24-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","NK230324","Other_Wine","Producer_Cliff Lede Vineyards","Region_Stags Leap District","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","varietal_cabernet sauvignon"],"price":18995,"price_min":18995,"price_max":18995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44535898112138,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2019 | Cliff Lede Vineyards | Cabernet Sauvignon","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":18995,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/64_ae24765f-abd3-418d-9c84-a1b2c975ec93.jpg?v=1711388529"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/64_ae24765f-abd3-418d-9c84-a1b2c975ec93.jpg?v=1711388529","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2019 | Cliff Lede Vineyards | Cabernet Sauvignon at CaskCartel.com","id":26555656667274,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.348,"height":1200,"width":418,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/64_ae24765f-abd3-418d-9c84-a1b2c975ec93.jpg?v=1711388529"},"aspect_ratio":0.348,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/64_ae24765f-abd3-418d-9c84-a1b2c975ec93.jpg?v=1711388529","width":418}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2019 | Cliff Lede Vineyards | Cabernet Sauvignon\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt on a foundation of lush cassis, blackberry, and dark cherry aromas, this long and full-bodied wine is apportioned with a perfume of cardamom, clove, and ancho chile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Cliff Lede Vineyards\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings: \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWA\u003c\/span\u003e | 92  \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" color=\"#ff2a00\"\u003eWS\u003c\/span\u003e | 95\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2019\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.6%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e United States, Stags Leap District\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt on a foundation of lush cassis, blackberry, and dark cherry aromas, this long and full-bodied wine is apportioned with a perfume of cardamom, clove, and ancho chile.
