Stag's Leap Wine Cellars, Cask 23, Cabernet Sauvignon --Vintage 1997
1 jeroboam per lot
DUELING JEROBOAMS OF CASK 23 The story of CASK 23 began during the harvest of 1974. Back then, in the winerys first years, Warren Winiarski enlisted the help of celebrated winemaker André Tchelistcheff. As they tasted through various lots of new wines from that year, they noticed a distinct character in a lot from the center of Block 4, a character they described as crushed violets. It was so appealing that they decided to age this wine separately. After aging in a wooden cask, number 23, the wine was still so deliciously distinct, Warren decided to bottle it separately after further aging in barrel, and give it a special name, CASK 23. Much of S.L.V. has been replanted, the vines in Block 4 from the original planting in 1970 still stand, and they continue to produce fruit of exquisite character.
