Score 91/100 · Drink 2022-2033, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Nov 2021

The 2018 The Investor is composed of 40% Merlot, 32% Petite Sirah, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Malbec. Deep garnet-purple in color, it delivers blueberry compote, raspberry coulis and Morello cherries notes with hints of cumin seed, tar and star anise. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is plush and laden with juicy black fruits, framed by ripe rounded tannins and lively acidity, finishing with a red berry lift.

Score 95/100 · James Suckling, Jun 2021

This is blowzy and rich, yet there are plenty of tannins to back it up, and they are dusty and firm at that. Full-bodied, but not heavy in any way. Layered and already delicious. A blend of merlot, petite sirah, cabernet sauvignon and malbec. Drink or hold.

Stags' Leap Winery

Often confused with Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars, Stags’ Leap Winery is another Stags Leap District estate. With a long history, its Petite Sirah has cult status among aficionados, although – like most Napa estates – it produces a range of Cabernet Sauvignon wines.
