2024 Thread Feathers Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon

$59.99

Winemaking:

Grapes were handpicked, and optically sorted around 25.5 brix throughout 2 vineyards within the Stag Leap District AVA. After a 3-day cold soak, tank temperatures were brought up to 95 degrees for maximum color extraction. After full extraction has been achieved, temperatures were brought down, cooling the tank and slowing the fermentation to capture the freshness and elegance of the fruit. We pressed “sweet” allowing the final stages of fermentation to take place in French oak barrel.   

Tasting Notes:

"The 2024 Thread Feathers 'Stags Leap District' Cabernet Sauvignon is dense and delicious stuff that is showing really well right now. Arabica mocha and milk chocolate flavors mingle well with rocky soils on the palate." 93 Points, Owen Bargreen. Drink 2026-2036.

Wine Specs:

Blend: 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petite Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc
