This white wine from Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars comes from Napa Valley and shows a restrained, balanced profile. In the glass it displays a clear, luminous color with straw highlights; the bouquet offers discreet fruity and floral notes, accompanied by a hint of minerality. The olfactory approach favors clean expression and a balance between freshness and softness, without exaggerated aromatics.

On the palate it is taut and balanced, with a structure that supports flavors of white-fleshed fruit and citrus, followed by a pleasant saline component that lengthens the finish. The texture is smooth and invites sipping; it is best served chilled and pairs well with fish dishes, shellfish, grilled vegetables or fresh cheeses. For those seeking a measured-character Napa Valley white, it represents a choice to enjoy in informal, convivial settings and is also pleasant as an aperitif.

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
Production focused on showcasing the character of the terroir: balanced wines combining structure and finesse, crafted to express the typicity of individual vineyards and suitable for aging.
Terroir and vineyards
Located in the Stags Leap District of the Napa Valley AVA, the winery works with historic vineyards such as S.L.V. and FAY, facing the Stags Leap Palisades in a climate typical of the valley, with diurnal temperature variations that favor ripening and acidity.

Winner at the 1976 Judgment of Paris with the 1973 S.L.V. Cabernet; a bottle of that 1973 was included in the Smithsonian's collection.
