It is no secret that the red wines remain the raison d'etre for most admirers of Stag's Leap Wine Cellars. For thrifty, smart readers, the 1992 Hawk Crest Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most attractive Cabernet bargains in the marketplace. It possesses lively, ripe, jammy, berry, cassis fruit, a round texture, generous flavors, and a soft, straightforward, delicious finish. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. This winery enjoys a much deserved fine reputation for its bevy of complex, elegant, authoritatively flavorful red wines, particularly the Fay Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon and the Cask 23 Proprietary Red Wine, the latter one of California's benchmark wines. The white wine program has been less impressive, although progress is evident with each new vintage. Tel. (707) 944-2020; Fax (707) 257-7501.
