Overview

Tomahawk Vineyard is the pinnacle of the Chimney Rock estate. Comprised of a small group of vines which were planted in 2002, Tomahawk consistently produces intense, massively complex fruit. The wine is compelling, powerful and elegant with a remarkably lengthy finish. Released in limited quantities, it is a pure expression of Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon.

Taste

Tomahawk consistently produces intense, massively complex fruit. The ensuing wines are truly world-class, compelling, powerful and elegant with a remarkably lengthy finish. Broadly structured with powerful tannins, a rich and full-bodied palate. The finish is equally powerful but enveloped silky, classic Stags Leap District acidity and balance.
