Winemaker notes - Stag's Leap Wine Cellars is proud to announce the release of our 1985 SLV (o r new designation for Stag's Leap Vineyards). This is the best wine we have made from this vineyard with the exception of the Cask Twenty Three from the same year. Formerly, the 1974 and 1978 wines from the same vineyard were the paragons of excellence for style and vintage. The wine is the essence of SLV character. Ripe, abundant fruit greets the nose with pleasing aromas of cherries and cassis balanced by the spice of French oak. Flavors are long, complex and layered. The texture is perhaps the most extraordinary quality of this wine of many delights, having a supple edge combined with a firm, fine-grained and seamless interior. The finish is long and satisfying, providing many palate echoes of slowly fading resonance. The exuberance of its youth promises harmonious grace in its maturity.
