  • Wine Spectator | Rating: 88

    Firm, tight and tannic, this is a tightly wound '96 that needs patience, as the chunky core of currant, spice, coffee, mineral and earth notes needs time to soften and evolve.

  • Wine Advocate | Rating: 85

    The 1996 Cabernet Sauvignon Faye exhibits an attractive dark ruby color with pink at the rim. The nose offers up sweet kirsch, dried cherry, earth, oak, and foresty aromas. Light to medium-bodied, with zesty acidity and slight greenness to the tannin, this is a pleasant, but uninspiring effort.

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars is one of Napa Valley's most established and respected producers. The winery was founded by Warren Winiarski and his family in 1970 and it is best known for estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignons - CASK 23, S.L.V., and FAY. Over the years, the wines have become some of the most highly regarded and collected wines worldwide. They are fashioned to express classic elegance, structure, and ageability, and to reflect the place in which they are grown.
