James Suckling (96)

Luscious, relaxed and practically oozing with blueberry and cherry pie flavors, the wine has the signature Stags Leap soothing tannins. Aged in 100 percent new French barrels for 18 months, it shows how delicious and drinkable the district’s wines can be. Drink now or hold.

Vinous (95)

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Hirondelle Vineyard is redolent of crème de cassis, chocolate, licorice, leather and dried flowers. Powerful and sumptuous in the glass, with gorgeous soft contours, the Hirondelle is quite showy today. The oak is perhaps at the limit, but it’s a style that works quite well.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Hirondelle Vineyard is another 100% varietal release from Amici that has a darker, powerful profile in its black and blue fruits, liquid violet, candied orange, and chocolate-driven aromas and flavors. It's medium to full-bodied, has a balanced, elegant mouthfeel, plenty of tannins, and a great finish. It needs to be hidden in the back of the cellar for 5-6 years, but it's a gorgeous bottle of wine.
