"Its brilliant delineation and full-bodied texture, with nothing out of place in a seamless integration of all its building blocks make for a stylistic, flavorful, elegant, yet powerful wine..."

"Deep purple black color has a nice glow to it. Sophisticated aromatics, cedar, violets, some roasted black fruit, just the right amount of oak. Quite what it should be for Stags Leap. On the palate, still a bit of youthful jamminess, but there is definition underneath that, and the blue black fruit is stylish. A well balanced effort in a decidedly Bordeaux style. Well done."

"Deep black fruit and cedar nose. Cassis and black pepper fruit and chocolate and coffee tannins. Long finish. Very good. Drink from 2010."

"The 2006 Solo has a dense purple color, a big, sweet nose of lead pencil shavings intermixed with crème de cassis, new saddle leather, charcoal, and spice box. Its brilliant delineation and full-bodied texture, with nothing out of place in a seamless integration of all its building blocks make for a stylistic, flavorful, elegant, yet powerful wine to drink over the next 20-25 years."
