Eisele Altagracia Cabernet 2013

Napa Valley, CA Wine Advocate 94 points! Eisele Vineyard Altagracia Cabernet Sauvignon from Araujo Estate is one of the finest Napa Cabs on the market, receiving high praise from Robert Parker: "Both 2013s are clearly the finest Eisele wines made under the administration of François Pinault and his top lieutenant, Frédéric Engerer, who also runs the show at Château Latour. The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Altagracia is a beauty. Dense, opaque purple, a big sweet kiss of blueberry and black raspberry fruit intermixed with forest floor and violets is followed by a lush, medium to full-bodied wine with terrific concentration, light tannin and an approachable style even for a 2013. It should drink well for 15 or more years. Readers should note that the relatively new owners of what was formerly known as the Araujo Estate have finally changed the name to the Eisele Vineyard. This is one of the greatest terroirs in all of Napa Valley, if not all of California. It certainly makes sense to promote its name."-Robert M. Parker, Jr. 94 points.
