Score 97/100 · Drink 2016-2041, Robert Parker, Dec 2016

Another Stags Leap cuvée, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Scarlet Love is 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Hints of graphite, blackberry, blueberry, floral notes, charcoal and incense jump from the glass of this sensational Cabernet Sauvignon. Inky purple, with fabulous concentration, a full-bodied mouthfeel and incredible finish with no hard edges, this is a magnificent 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon to drink over the next 25 or more years.

The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Scarlet Love emerges from Lede's Rock Block within the Poetry Vineyard, a steep hillside site in Stags Leap. Rich, sensual and inviting, the 2014 captures the essence of what makes the wines of this appellation so compelling. Inky blue and black fruits, smoke, leather, licorice and menthol meld together in a deep, beautifully expressive wine. The 2014 is bold and flamboyant to the core, with good overall balance. (AG)
