Score 96/100 · Drink 2024-2048, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Nov 2021
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Audentia Estate is composed of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petite Sirah and 9% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts with plum preserves, blueberry pie and blackcurrant jelly notes, plus hints of black olive, wild sage, lilacs and Sichuan pepper, plus a touch of crushed rocks. Medium-bodied, tight-knit and delicately styled, it has fantastic energy and a long, shimmery finish.

About the producer

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars
Warren Winiarski founded Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars in 1970 when he purchased the Stag’s Leap Vineyard in Napa’s Stags Leap District. The 1973 S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon – only the second vintage – won the famous 1976 Judgement of Paris blind tasting, rocketing the estate to fame.
