Last bottle of this. Drinking so well right now. Great Cote-de-Nuits character in a user-friendly, drink-me-now style. Developing more savory notes since my last bottle. Such nice balance — 23 days ago

My continued quest to try as many 2022 Burgundies as possible.

15 months in 40% new oak.

When you put this to your nose and then taste, you know you have crossed over to Grand Cru. I would buy this but $300 crosses my price threshold.

The body and mouthfeel are gorgeous. Stunning in fact. Dark, rich, ripe, slightly candied fruits of; blackberries, plum, dark cherries, red cherries, poached strawberries with excellent purple and blueberry hues. There is dark chocolate powder, dark, rich, earth with dry leaves, hue of maple syrup, dry river stone, dry herb buffet, dry tobacco, dry, used leather, barrel shavings, dark spice, light baking spices, some vanillin, black tea, wet, grey volcanic clays, candied, bright, fresh, red, dark florals with violets, near perfect acidity and a gorgeous, elegant, well made in every way long finish that lasts minutes.

If $300 a bottle burgundy is no issue for you, a definite buy.

This one is best in show of the tasting. — 7 months ago

On the earthy side. Complex layers, very delicious. Nice structure and long finish. Cote de Nuits/Burgundy. $30 well worth it. — 6 years ago

Med aroma, med+ flavors of strawberry red currants; vibrant acidity, not much in the way of tropical notes, not that there should be. Delightful. — 4 months ago

The 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard is the last wine Bart and Daphne Araujo made from start to finish before selling their winery and vineyard to the Artemis Group. All the Eisele signatures are there, but the volume is just turned down. Dark berry fruit, gravel, spice, earthiness and leather lend striking aromatic nuance throughout. This mid-weight, supremely elegant Cabernet Sauvignon is sublime. Drink it over the next 10-15 years. Superb. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2022)

We love this wine! Probably one of my favorites. Bart makes such interesting blends that most people haven't thought of. — 5 years ago
