Eisele Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2015 750ml

Eisele Vineyard, in the northeastern corner of Napa Valley near Calistoga, has produced celebrated Cabernet Sauvignon for decades and is now owned by the Artémis group, the owners of Château Latour. The 2015 vintage, a small, drought-affected crop of tiny berries, gave intense, concentrated wines, and this one earned a perfect 100 points from Wine Advocate, plus 99 from Vinous and The Wine Palate and 98 from James Suckling. Expect red and black cherries, cassis and mulberry with rose, lavender, sandalwood and cinnamon on a full, explosive palate with "oh-so-fine, pixelated tannins." Approachable now, it should age gracefully for 25 years or more.
