Tasting Notes
The Moonracer 2017 from Realm Cellars is a powerful yet graceful expression of the Stags Leap District, balancing intensity with refinement.
It opens with expressive aromas of blackberry, cassis, plum, graphite, violets, and crushed stone, complemented by subtle layers of cedar, tobacco, and dark cocoa.
On the palate, the wine is rich, structured, and polished, showing remarkable depth and focus. Dense fruit concentration is supported by silky tannins and a fine backbone of acidity. Flavors of black cherry, mocha, licorice, and mineral tones unfold seamlessly toward a long, persistent finish marked by freshness and energy.
Despite the warm vintage, this wine maintains exceptional balance, showcasing both the power and finesse that define the Moonracer vineyard.
