93 points James Suckling: "A chewy red with blackberry, blackcurrant and dark-chocolate character. Full-bodied with polished tannins and a savory finish. Drink or hold. (7/5/21)"

92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Artemis is a very pretty wine that shows just how alluring the vintage is. Open-knit and silky, Artemis is so inviting today. Crushed flowers, hints of spice, leather, cedar and tobacco add attractive layers of nuance to this mid-weight, gracious Cabernet Sauvignon from Stag's Leap Wine Cellars. Drink: 2022-2033. (Jan 2021)"

92 points Decanter: "Consistently provides an respectable, accessible overview of the Stags Leap District. Great balance between black and red fruits on the nose, propped up by subtle chocolate and mint aromas. Initially, the palate is rich and decadent, before retracting and showing off the restraint and elegance that an accurate rendering of this appellation provides. Solid and quintessential. Drinking Window: 2024-2035. (Oct 2020)"

91 points Wine Spectator: "[$75 list] Well-built, with a focused core of red and black currant fruit, mixed with dark earth, sweet tobacco and singed vanilla notes. Drink now through 2028. (6/30/21)"

91 points/'Editors' Choice,' Wine Enthusiast: "From a blend of beautiful sites across the valley, including Arcadia Vineyard in Coombsville and Rancho Chimiles in Wooden Valley, as well as small amounts of grapes from S.L.V. and Fay, this wine is inviting in dense aromas of red fruit, caramel and brioche. With dashes of Petit Verdot and Malbec, it finishes on accents of tobacco and cedar. Alcohol 14.5%. (Dec 2020)"

90+ points Jeb Dunnuck: "[$75 list] Always a solid value in Napa Cabernet, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Artemis has a varietal nose of darker currants and subtle blue fruits as well as green tobacco, lead pencil shavings, chocolate, and cedarwood. This carries to a medium-bodied, nicely textured, elegant 2018 that offers the vintage's fresher, more elegant texture, present tannins, and plenty of length on the finish. It's not for those craving blockbuster wines, but it has elegance and charm. It should benefit from 2-3 years of bottle age and keep for 10-12. Drink: 2023-2036. (1/27/21)"
