The product of a growing season that the estate calls “ideal,” the ’12 Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard is a towering achievement; always a darling of critics and connoisseurs, this bottling achieved near-legendary status almost upon release. Bursting with juicy black and red fruits, crushed flowers, pressed sage and mint, warm baking spices, pencil lead, and loam, this is an electric, expressive evocation of this cult Napa Valley wine. At once precise and enveloping, this wine snuggles the palate as it moves with an electric acidity, studding the cheeks with tannins. Breathtaking balance between its elements make this ’12 Cabernet Sauvignon enjoyable now, but they also lend age-worthy structure to this blockbuster wine. The grapes for this mono-varietal Cabernet Sauvignon are organically grown in the historic Eisele Vineyard, which sits in the famed alluvial fan between two water sources; this vineyard’s stony soil offers perfect drainage and unique terroir, making for collector Cabernet Sauvignon.
