Artemis Napa Valley by Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars is a red wine that subtly reflects the producer's Californian style. In the glass it shows a deep ruby color and an aromatic profile suggesting red and dark fruits, with delicate floral hints and light spicy nuances; the palate is compact and balanced, supported by pleasant tannins and measured freshness that make it easy to drink. The structure is well defined without excess, with a harmonious progression toward a mid-length finish.

Serve at a moderate temperature, around 16–18 °C, and allow a few minutes of aeration before tasting if desired. It pairs well with rustic dishes, grilled meats and semi-aged cheeses, and also complements mushroom preparations, savory ragouts and roasted vegetables. It is aimed at those seeking a straightforward, approachable red suitable for informal convivial moments as well as more structured dinners.

Historic success at the 1976 Judgment of Paris. Iconic vineyards: S.L.V. and FAY, the foundation of the estate's style. Single-vineyard labels and the CASK 23 selection serve as the benchmark for the estate's Cabernets. Head winemaker Marcus Notaro and a winemaking team overseeing both whites and reds.

Winery history
The winery was founded with the purchase of the S.L.V. vineyard and the establishment of the estate in the 1970s; its international renown rose when the 1973 Cabernet S.L.V. took first place in the blind tasting at the 1976 Judgment of Paris. Over time the estate has expanded its vineyards and developed a range of estate and single-vineyard bottlings that have consolidated its reputation.
Production philosophy
