Joe’s Tasting Note: “Anyone looking for the perfect steak-chips-wine combo should head here. The blend of ripe currants and vanilla, oaky spice is delicious, whilst there is a good heft of ripe tannin to work with your (ideally, rare) steak. On the finish look for all the mocha, coconut and vanilla aromas from the barrels as they evolve.
Considered one of the “first growths” of Napa Valley, Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars produces renowned Cabernet Sauvignon from its historic Stags Leap District estate vineyards.
Named after a Greek goddess associated with the protection of wild animals, especially the sacred Stag, this Artemis Cabernet Sauvignon offers inviting aromas of blackcherry and plum with hints of vanilla.
On the palate, the wine has a soft entry with ripe mixed berry and plum flavors.
It has a medium-bodied mouthfeel with round, satin-like tannins.
Food Pairing Suggestions: Enjoy this wine with grilled tri-tip, braised short ribs, or pasta with wild mushrooms and prosciutto.
