Cliff Lede Vineyards is a boutique winery in Yountville's Stags Leap District, housed in a striking 2005 state-of-the-art facility designed by architect Howard Backen. The winery features custom truncated tanks and gravity-flow systems that honor each vintage of Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and beyond. Their acclaimed Poetry and Songbook programs, along with designated vineyard selections like Beckstoffer To Kalon, have earned Wine Spectator Top 100 recognition and scores of 95+ from Robert Parker and Wine Advocate.
A Stags Leap District estate winery founded in 2002, Cliff Lede crafts elegant, site-driven Cabernet Sauvignon using minimal-intervention winemaking from estate vineyards organized into blocks named after rock songs and albums. The flagship Poetry Cabernet Sauvignon commands $375, and the portfolio spans acclaimed single-vineyard bottlings from prestigious sites including Beckstoffer To Kalon.
