Considered as one of the 'First Growths' in Napa Valley, the 'Hands of Time' Red Blend is an affordable choice from the world-renowned Stag's Leap winery. A sumptuous texture giving cool, menthol-laced blue and black fruit flavours - blueberries, plums and blackcurrants alongside floral touches of violets. It's deep, dark and brooding but not at all heavy. Long length and mouth coating tannins. This deserves a meat-heavy meal, steak or roast beef.  About the ProducerStag’s Leap Wine Cellars, not

92 Points - Cellar Tracker . “I don’t think there’s a Sauvignon Blanc out there with the complex array of aromatics and unique flavors offered up by this stellar super-Sauv….Fully barrel fermented in French oak and on the lees for six months. Scents of salted butterscotch, peach blossom, just-mowed grass and pineapple fill the air. Developed flavors of jasmine-soaked pears and honeyed tangerine are mesmerizing – and the acidity pulls it all together.” Meridith May. Wine Press Ratings 92 Points

Big flavours, big body, big abv content, but everything is in harmonious balance. “Juvenile” comes from young vines (6-25 years old), interplanted, from several of their old vine designated vineyards – including Hayne, Ueberroth, Pesenti, Salvador and Vineyard 101. Whilst it offers sumptuous, joyous fruit, it also gives more than a glimpse of Turley’s single vineyard wines. Taste “The 2018 Zinfande

95 Points - Robert Parker. "The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Fay Estate-Grown comes from a vineyard established by Nathan Fay in 1961. Beautiful blackcurrant, floral-infused fruit jumps from the glass of this dense ruby/purple wine. There are some loamy underpinnings of soil, but the wine is medium to full-bodied, beautifully fruited, with great texture, and terrific purity and personality. This is a serious and beautiful wine to drink over the next 20-25 years, if not longer." Wine Press 95 Points -
