2022 | Cliff Lede Rhythm Cabernet Sauvignon | Stags Leap Chateau Carbonnieux There's some cedar and purpleOnly the second vintage of this new wine made from grapes grown on Cliff Lede's valley floor vineyard. Concentrated and elegant, with both red and black fruit, a linear feel to the texture and good, fine grained tannins to back it up. Also iron, cocoa and graphite come out in the glass. Great balance, a medium to full body and an appetizing sense of subtlety and restraint. 95 Pts James Suckling
