Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Artemis Napa Valley 2022

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Artemis Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2022 is a benchmark Napa Cab from the estate whose 1973 SLV Cabernet famously won the 1976 Judgment of Paris blind tasting — the result that put Napa Valley on the global wine map. Artemis is the estate's approachable flagship Cab, blending fruit from the Stags Leap District with sourced Napa lots to showcase the region's signature balance of ripe fruit, structured tannin, and food-forward acidity.

On the palate, the 2022 vintage leads with ripe black cherry, blackcurrant, and black plum, layered with baking spice, dark chocolate, toasted cedar, and a finely grained oak structure from extended French oak maturation. The tannins are firm but polished; the acidity keeps the fruit bright; the finish is long and savory, carrying dried herb and a soft graphite note. Built to drink well now with steak, lamb, or hard cheese, and structured to age comfortably through the decade.

The Stags Leap District is one of Napa's most celebrated sub-appellations, famed for the "iron fist in a velvet glove" structure of its Cabs. Artemis is a smart introduction to the estate before stepping up to SLV or Cask 23. Pair with our decanter, stemware, and broader Napa Cabernet range. Ships to most US states.
