Araujo Estate Eisele Vineyard Syrah 2012 Calistoga
This is the first
vintage that was blended under new ownership since the Araujos sold this famed
Napa Valley vineyard to Francois Pinault of Bordeaux’s Chateau Latour. Comprised of 99% Syrah and 1% Viognier co-fermented, this 2012 “shows dark, rich purple in the glass, and displays a racy nose of smoked meat, bitter chocolate, coffee bean, licorice and a hint of violet. In the mouth, it develops opulent flavors of ripe, dark fruit lifted by floral notes, ending with impeccably fine tannins. The 2012 Syrah shows tremendous purity and intensity, while capturing the expression of the varietal.”
