An ideal vintage for Eisele, the 2021 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is one for the ages. Vibrant and concentrated, this phenomenal Cabernet is silky with racy tannins and refined energy. Aromas of black currant, and boysenberry mingle with a subtle spice lift and then engages the palate by showcasing the vineyard's terroir, promising exceptional aging potential.
The 2021 vintage began with a dry winter and warm spring, leading to early budbreak and balanced canopy growth. Seasonable summer temperatures ensured ideal veraison, while controlled misting and canopy management maintained berry consistency through late heat waves. A long ripening period, akin to 2016 and 2019, resulted in optimal skin maturity and depth of flavor.
