Artemis
The wine
ARTEMIS, named after the Greek goddess of the hunt, is the culmination of our hunt for the finest Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa Valley.
Vinification
Imagine taking an aerial tour of Napa Valley, flying over the patchwork of vineyards that have made the valley and its wines famous. The grapes for ARTEMIS are sourced from a unique collection of these sites. The spectrum of fruit from across the Napa Valley includes sites in the Atlas Peak, St. Helena, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Stags Leap District appellations. Each site lends its personality to the aroma, flavor, structure and texture of the finished wine.
Winemaking
ARTEMIS, named after the Greek goddess of the hunt, is 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.
