Description
 
Araujo Estate is based around the historic Eisele vineyard which was first planted in the 1880’s. At the north-eastern end of the Napa Valley, the vineyard enjoys warm days and cool nights with the stony, well drained soil ensuring low yields of intensely flavoured grapes. The vineyard is managed according to organic and biodynamic principles. The wines have been consistently championed by Robert Parker, among others, contributing to a strong demand which always exceeds the limited production.

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon has a deep garnet-purple color. Its nose begins a little reserved, slowly revealing a quiet intensity of freshly crushed blackberries, chocolate-covered cherries, cassis and aniseed with compelling nuances of black tea, cigar box, truffles and charcuterie, plus, with coaxing, gentle wafts of red roses and crushed rocks emerge. The medium to full-bodied palate is simply arresting, offering a a myriad floral and earth sparks amidst a black fruit core and with seamless, firm, very fine-grained tannins. Well-knit freshness brings forth layer after layer of delicate nuances on the very long, mineral-laced finish. The team at Eisele, led by Frédéric Engerer (of Chateau Latour) and beautifully orchestrated by winemaker Hélène Mingot, have knocked it out of the park this vintage with this singular expression that both embraces the site's heritage and reveals parts unknown.
