Category: CABERNET SAUVIGNON

Smooth, dense & structured the wine embodies the typicity of the Eisele Vineyard. Black fruits - notably cherry & plum - dominate the nose and mouth. Complex notes of cedar, toast, subtle tar, and wood smoke mesh with the purity of the fruit seamlessly. Quite rich & elegant for such a large-framed wine. Biodynamic vineyard practices.

Brian A. ★★★★★

The black cherry and plum notes are incredibly intense on the nose, just as described. It's beautifully structured with that cedar and toast complexity, and it paired perfectly with a simple roast.

Henry ★★★★★

Opened this with dinner last night and the black cherry and plum notes were incredibly concentrated. The cedar and toast on the finish gave it a nice complexity without being overpowering. Still has plenty of life left in it.

Timothy X. ★★★★★

Twenty-five years in the bottle and it's still holding that cedar and toast backbone beautifully. The plum comes through on the mid-palate while the tar note keeps the finish interesting—exactly the structure you'd hope for from this vintage.
