Stags Leap Artemis Cabernet

In 1976, a panel of French judges blind-tasted California against Bordeaux and put this winery's Cabernet first. That event, the Judgment of Paris, changed Napa forever, and Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Artemis is the most accessible way to give someone a piece of it. Artemis is the winery's Napa Valley Cabernet, made in their signature style of richness with restraint, and it shows black cherry, currant, cedar, and a touch of vanilla over satiny tannins. It's polished rather than powerful, which is exactly what you want in a client appreciation gift headed to someone whose taste you can't ask about.

Best for closing gifts, deal anniversaries, and thanking senior clients and referral sources who'd appreciate a bottle with real history behind it.

• This is the winery that beat Bordeaux in 1976, and plenty of recipients will already know the story.
• It gives them something to say. "The Judgment of Paris winery" is a better conversation opener than any tasting note.
• Elegant, mid-weight, and smooth, so it suits a client who drinks Burgundy as well as one who drinks Napa.
• Fine on arrival with a nice dinner, and it'll reward a few years of patience if they'd rather put it away.

Is Stag's Leap Artemis a good client appreciation gift?

Yes. It comes from the winery that won the 1976 Judgment of Paris, the tasting that put Napa on the world map, so the bottle arrives with a story most business gifts can't match. The refined, medium-bodied style suits a wide range of tastes. Prime Wines delivers it gift-wrapped with your message.

Is Artemis appropriate for a closing gift?

It's one of the better choices for exactly that. A wine from the winery that won an historic underdog victory reads well at the close of a hard-won deal, and the executive tier matches the moment without tipping into extravagance.
