The Vice Cabernet Sauvignon Legacy Stags Leap District Napa Valley 2021
Ummmm...that was fast! If you missed the Long Meadow, fear not. We've got a 94 POINT STAGS LEAP CAB up next!
You could pay $155 from the winery when it's released in a few months…or…OR!!! You could save a melon-whomping $96 per bottle TODAY!!! The choice is yours. The seasoned Last Bottlers among you – that grabbed and glugged any of the Vice wines we’ve showcased before – know that these are ultra-plush, rich, toasty, and gloriously opulent MODERN Napa wines to their very core of inky, dark berry goodness. But THIS?! STAGS LEAP DISTRICT, good people!!! A glass of this LIQUID OPULENCE is just what the doctor ordered! This is the best wine we've tasted from The Vice yet, and it's UNDER SIXTY DOLLARS!!
But, what’s it like? DARK, inky, Richie Rich rich, and buttery smooth. As all Vice wines…unquestionably NOT FOR THE SHY! Fresh baked chocolate muffins, with a coulis of macerated and crushed berries, some cool and spicy cassis notes, then cherry kirsch, all kept bright and lively with this crumbly gravel and graphite minerality, and this final uplifting kiss of minty freshness. It’s a BEAST, good people, ready to stain your tongue now, and age with the very best of Napa cabs for the next couple of decades. Your CALL – but the clock is ticking…we tend to get some serious runs on powerful Napa cab like this – and when it is OVER 60% OFF? Yes…this will fly. While it lasts!!

“Bold and generous, this richly flavored wine tastes of blackberry, cassis and sweet tobacco. Cocoa, bay laurel and wet stones emerge with further sipping. Tannins are palate coating and persistent, carrying into a long and lavish finish.”

“This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Stags Leap District AVA is elegantly fashioned, balanced, and richly mineral-scented. Bright and pure red berry fruit is laced with crushed volcanic minerals. Medium-bodied with gentle tannins that are nicely integrated. Nuances of graphite, sandalwood and sweet baking spices round out the fresh finish.”
~Decanter
