1 hour decant(some fine/cloudy sediment). A splendid deep ruby red color with some bricking. On the nose: Enticing perfumed notes of dark red fruit, worn leather, herbaceous, floral, mint, stewed meat. Taste: silky, layered with depth and length wine.... opulent red fruit, cassis, damp earth, new leather, green bell pepper, and a long finish with beautifully resolved tannins. YUM! — 2 months ago
Very approachable now. Exotic nose of tropical fruits with a hint of chives. Lemon sherbet on the mid-palate with moderate to soft acidity, suggesting that this is for short-term cellaring. Beautiful white peach notes and light sweetness conclude a superb overall presentation. — 4 months ago

PJW 6 pack #2 - There’s an ocean of this Napa fruitopia around - perfectly refined yet boring - I switched back to the OTH CDP. Paul says the French bought Eisele from Araujo - I hope they haven’t ruined the cab as well — 2 months ago
