St. Supéry Estate Vineyards
Élu Napa Valley Red Blend
2013 ELU by St. Supery. Bright blueberry with vanilla and brown sugar notes. Reminds me of a Del Dotto Cab. Very pleasing wine that's surprisingly ready to drink now (I decanted 3 hours) but should age fairly well too.

Jun 19th, 2016Wasn't expecting much, but pretty nice. Very light as expected for a 2000, but kind of elegant in a way.

Oct 16th, 2013Had it at Lisa’s in Atlanta on Easter 2024. This 2017 red blend was delightful - not too tight either a nice mouth feel.

Feb 8th, 2024Napa Bordeaux-Style Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (74%), Merlot (10%), Malbec (7%), Cabernet Franc (5%) and Petite Verdot (4%). Deep red/ purple color. Aromas of black berry/plum, coffee, smoky oak and black strap molasses. Palate is rich and full of black and blue fruit, toasted nuts, black licorice and baking spices. Nice vanilla element on the finish. Lovely silky structure, texture and tannins. Quite complex but well balanced and very easy to drink. Sincerely appreciate the gift, Mark and Terri!
