1991 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Estate 'Cask 23' Cabernet Sauvignon - 750ml
To experience CASK 23 is to go on a great journey, showing to perfection the greatness of the land from which it comes. CASK 23 is made only in exceptional vintages from the best lots from our S.L.V. and FAY Vineyards. Although FAY and S.L.V. are adjoining, subtle differences in terroir express different fruit characteristics. S.L.V. offers complex, multilayered Bordeaux-like fruit elements. FAY vines produce radiant berry perfumes and voluptuous flavors. The perfumes of CASK 23 evolve like an aromatic landscape; truffle, black currant, allspice and sandalwood beguile through layers of roasted herbs, violets and rose petals. The entry is at once imposing and round. Deep, concentrated flavors reflect those in the aroma, resting on a podium of elegant, fine-grained tannins. The utmost care is taken in the vineyard and the cellar in crafting CASK 23. The result is a stunning addition to our CASK 23 portfolio.
Robert Parker - 96 Points
The superb 1991 Cask 23 Proprietary Red Wine appears to be one of the truly outstanding examples of this expensive proprietary red wine. The wine's saturated dark purple color is followed by a huge, unevolved but sexy nose of toasty new oak, dense, black-cherry and jammy cassis fruit, and vague scents of underbrush and spice. Extremely rich and concentrated, it offers intriguing blackcurrant and coffee flavors, full body, remarkable harmony, and a finish that lasts for nearly a minute.
