Heads Up!

This throwdown occured while Neel's dad was in town, but I decided to make it it's own post for the sake of organization. Anal retentitiveness at its best, too bad we never tagged our blogs with labels from the get go, whatever. Hindsight is 20/20. So here's our cheap Stag's Leap comparison...

Cameron Hughes Lot 60 Stag's Leap Cabernet - $13.99 at Costco now, the label says Napa Valley cause they say they were contractually obligated to by the winery they sourced the grape juice from, not bad. Honestly, I though the wine was decent. On the light to medium body tip, somewhat sweet and smooth. I'd rather drink the Seriously, but if you don't have a Cost Plus nearby then this is fairly suitable. If it makes you feel any better, its a dollar cheaper and on a 'limited' time only basis. Neel found it drinkable whereas his dad found its nose a bit skunky due to the zinfandel grapes and a travesty that they were able to even classify the wine a cabernet sauvignon! It's cool. Nothing to go out of your way to find but probably fun to try and have it go heads up with the Seriously.

Chateau Diana Seriously Good Wine Stag's Leap Cabernet - $14.99 at Cost Plus! Don't let the name fool you, this is seriously good for the price. Everyone found it to be a solid bottle and worth finding if you're interested in trying wines from different appellations in the Napa Valley.

In conclusion, Seriously Good Wine wins the shoot out between cheap sourced wines from really famous Napa appellations.
