Description
FAY Vineyard, established by pioneering grape grower Nathan Fay in 1961, was the first planting of Cabernet Sauvignon in what is now the Stags Leap District AVA. Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars purchased this historic vineyard from Nathan Fay in 1986, and has made a single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from this vineyard since the 1990 vintage.

Stag’s Leap FAY Cabernet Sauvignon
We began the 2022 season with early mowing and tillage to conserve as much soil moisture as possible. There was an unusual hail/rainstorm at bloom that reduced yields in some vineyards. This was followed by a late frost in mid-April, but thankfully we did not get extreme freezing temperatures. Spring weather was very unpredictable, with a mix of cool, warm, and hot days.
