The Judge & Stag's Leap Is Back Again…
Oberndorfer Str. 2 · D-78628 Rottweil The Judge & Tel. 0741 / 1 72 06 · Fax 0741 / 1 72 07 [email protected] Stag’s Leap is back again… www.bacchus-vinothek.com Aktualisiert am 04.06.2016 …und hat es schon wieder getan. Anlässlich des 40. Jahrestages der legendären Verkostung (siehe unten) in Paris, als Stag’s Leap SLV die großen Namen aus Frankreich auf die Plätze verwies, legten britische Weinkritiker um den Master of Wine Richard Bampfield das Thema nochmals neu auf. Es wurde wieder blind verkostet: Bordeaux: 2001 Haut-Brion, 2001 Montrose, 2001 Mouton-Rothschild, 2001 Léoville-Las-Cases Kalifornien: 2005 Ridge Vineyards, Monte Bello, 2005 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars - SLV, 2001 Clos du Val, 2005 Heitz Wine Cellars - Martha's Vineyard, 2002 Mount Veeder - Mayacamas Vineyards, 2001 Freemark Abbey. Das Ergebnis? Platz 1 bei den Rotweinen : 2005 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars – SLV Vor Haut Brion, Mouton oder Las Cases (siehe unten). Natürlich sollten Sie die Möglichkeit haben, einen solchen Kalifornier, der sich in einer Blindprobe vor die 1er Cru Classé schiebt, auch zu erwerben. Es gibt weltweit nur noch vereinzelt Flaschen. Aber Dank meinem Besuch 2011 auf dem Weingut und dem ausgezeichneten Kontakt seit jener Zeit, konnte ich mir die letzten 180 Flaschen des Weinguts sichern, die das Weingut bereit war, an mich abzugeben. Nur noch einige Kisten für spätere Proben wurden zurückbehalten. Mittlerweile hat Stag’s Leap Anfragen aus aller Welt wegen dem 2005er. Aber keinen Wein mehr. Den hat sich der Grimm mal wieder für seine Kunden gesichert. Import läuft. Allerdings hat Stag’s Leap einen Mindestpreis im Internet verlangt. -

CLOS DU VAL 2009 CABERNET SAUVIGNON NAPA VALLEY APPELLATION: Napa Valley COMPOSITION: 84% Cabernet Sauvignon 7% Merlot 6% Cabernet Franc 3% Petit Verdot FERMENTATION: Traditional stainless steel tanks with 2 pumpovers daily AGING: 18 months in French oak barrels, 25% new barrels ACID: 5.9 g/L pH: 3.65 ALCOHOL: 13.5% SOIL TYPE: gravelly clay loams AGE OF VINES: 10-27 years HARVESTED: September 14 - October 16, 2008 BOTTLING: July 2010 PRODUCTION: 30,000 cases produced WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS Characteristic of Clos du Val’s world-class style, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon continues the winery’s tradition of producing truly elegant wines of balance and complexity. Its opulent, brooding purple hue is accentuated with aromas of ripe black and purple fruit, black pepper and subtle hints of toast. The palate displays a seamless integration of intense flavors that include chocolate, toffee and blackberry. The wine has a rich yet powerful mouthfeel marked by focused, silky tannins and a long, lingering finish. Expect this Cabernet Sauvignon to age gracefully for an additional 5-10 years. HARVEST After a somewhat frenetic growing season marked by dry periods, heavy rains, cold spikes and heat waves, harvest began on August 20th with Pinot Noir for our highly-limited Rosé program and ended with the harvesting of our final Cabernet Sauvignon lots on October 6th. The skies opened up on Oct 13th, dumping more than three inches of rain in the valley in fewer than 24 hours, damaging much of the fruit remaining on the vines. Fortunately for us, all of our fruit was harvested before the rains.
