Cliff Lede High Fidelity 2011

The Winery

Cliff Lede

Since founding his namesake winery in 2002, Cliff Lede has taken full advantage of his sixty acre estate in the Stags Leap District of the Napa Valley, which was replanted with the assistance of famed viticulturist David Abreu. The estate is composed of two vineyards- the Poetry vineyard and the Twin Peaks vineyard, and each are divided into blocks named after some of Lede’s favorite rock songs and albums which led to the nickname the ‘Rock Blocks.’

By the time the winery was completed in 2005, Lede perfected his winemaking techniques for his famed Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, and other Bordeaux Blends. The state-of-the-art winery combines timeless methods combined with innovative technology to make famous wines like his 2013 Poetry Cabernet Sauvignon which received 100 points from Robert Parker, and we are thrilled to offer you a variety of vintages from this illustrious producer.

Summary

Cliff Lede High Fidelity 2011 is a proprietary red blend primarily from Napa Valley, showcasing a Right Bank style with a focus on Merlot and Cabernet Franc, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. This wine reflects a unique rock-music theme, with vineyard blocks named after songs, and is crafted from grapes sourced mainly from the estate's Stags Leap District sites. The 2011 vintage was cool, resulting in a complex profile aged for 18 months in new French oak. Tasting notes reveal aromas of plum, leather, and tobacco, alongside flavors of currant, raspberry, and menthol, all balanced with fine tannins and a subtle sweetness.
