2012 Eisele Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon RP--97

Robert Parker: 97 Points
"The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, is a relatively powerful statement from the new owners. Dense ruby/purple in color, with an exceptional nose of crème de cassis, a touch of mulberry and spice. The oak is completely obscured by the lavish, concentrated, ripe fruit and multi-dimensional mid-palate that expands beautifully, but with no sense of heaviness. The wine is rich and full-bodied, but with velvety tannin and stunning purple and black fruits. This is a beauty, with savoriness that’s hard to articulate. The finish goes on for a good 45 seconds. This is a beauty that’s velvety, opulent and capable of drinking well now or in 25 to 30 years. " - Robert Parker, eRobertParker.com #222 (Dec 30, 2015)
