Araujo Estate Eisele Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2011
The Eisele Vineyard terroir showed its pedigree in 2011. This Cabernet is vibrant and fresh, layered with distinctive minerality and nuance. The ethereal tannins are simply melted throughout, supporting a delicious texture and prolonged by a lingering finish. The 2011 Eisele Vineyard Cabernet combines deep energy and elegance with a sense of restraint, providing great pleasure even at this early stage of its life.

The 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard is the last wine Bart and Daphne Araujo made from start to finish before selling their winery and vineyard to the Artemis Group. All the Eisele signatures are there, but the volume is just turned down. Dark berry fruit, gravel, spice, earthiness and leather lend striking aromatic nuance throughout. This mid-weight, supremely elegant Cabernet Sauvignon is sublime. Drink it over the next 10-15 years. Superb. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2022)

Solid Cabernet, still showing too much ripe fruit right now, could possibly be a revisit in 15 years???

Stop the bus. This wine is bananas! Crazy good, chewy, need to scrape your teeth afterward kind of Cabernet. Shoots!

Black and red fruits, star anise, leather tobacco, herbaceous and still a little astringent on the finish.

Very 2011. Fresh acidity, minimal fruit and lots of veggies

Nice wine in a difficult vintage. Tannin perhaps a bit rough at the moment but should resolve with time.

Second best Napa wine of the night, what a classic Napa Cabernet should be, balancing power and elegance effortlessly. #NYWE14
