Palate
ARTEMIS Cabernet Sauvignon reveals a velvety and balanced texture with a fine and well-integrated tannic structure. Aromas of ripe black fruits – such as blackberries, currants and plums – dominate the attack, followed by shades of dark chocolate, coffee, vanilla and sweet spices coming from ripening in Oak. Subtle tones of fine tobacco and moist earth emerge in evolution, which add complexity and depth.
Nose
It presents a complex and expressive bouquet, characteristic of Napa Valley’s refined Cabernet style. On the nose, it opens with aromas of ripe blackberry, black cherry, and cassis, intertwined with notes of mocha, cedar, and sweet spice from oak aging. Subtle hints of violet, graphite, and vanilla add depth and sophistication.
Winemaking
After careful hand-harvesting, the grapes are destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve purity of fruit and extract fine tannins and color. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes extended maceration to enhance structure and depth. The blend is then aged for about 15–18 months in French and American oak barrels, a portion of which are new, imparting subtle notes of vanilla, spice, and mocha while maintaining the vibrant fruit expression.
ARTEMIS, named after the Greek goddess of the hunt, is a wine that truly reflects its name. It’s the culmination of our hunt for the finest grapes from Napa Valley which, when combined with estate-grown fruit, combine to create a Cabernet Sauvignon that expresses the regional character of Napa Valley with the signature style of Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars. This approach results in a wine of lush fruit flavors balanced by extraordinary structure and elegance. Whereas our Estate Cabernet Sauvignons showcase the distinctive characteristics of each vineyard, ARTEMIS demonstrates how astute grape selection and skillful blending can create a wine that represents the sum of Napa Valley’s best Cabernet Sauvignon parts.
