Lindstrom Wines Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon 2010
Limited new Cabernet release from Celia Welch who make Staglin and Scarecrow! 95+ Points Robert Parker: "The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon is another huge, dark, imposing wine. Black olives, licorice, smoke and grilled herbs all come through nicely in this vivid Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2010 isn’t markedly different from the 2009 stylistically, suggesting it is the terroir that marks the wine to the greatest degree. There is a bit more tannin and overall structure here, though, so readers will have to be patient. Huge layers of dark fruit laced with exotic overtones of tar, incense and licorice saturate the palate on the finish. The only problem with the 2010 will be finding it, as production is down sharply from 2009. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2030...Lindstrom’s Nicali Vineyard in Stags’ Leap is notable for a cool microclimate that produces small grapes packed with flavor, structure and incredible personality."

First timer. Love the balanced modern style. Big but not overdone and plenty of earth.
