Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars – FAY, Cabernet Sauvignon, 2009, 75 cl

This wine opens with generous aromas of bright raspberry, sandalwood, vanilla and anise along with the signature bright cheery note of the vineyard. The aromas are followed by an alluring mix of red cherry, blueberry and tangerine that envelop the palate with nuances of vanilla and spice from careful aging in French oak barrels. The palate is lush with ripe tannins, balanced acidity and a persistent berry/cherry finish.

Enjoy with spice-rubbed rack of lamb or roasted duck with a cherry sauce.
