Description
Eisele Vineyard est la star biodynamique (certifiée Demeter) de la Napa, localisée dans le secteur de Calistoga sur une quinzaine d’hectares. Vinification peu interventionniste et expression du terroir garantie ! Élevage de 20 mois en barriques neuves de chêne français.
Ce pur Cabernet offre un nez fruité ultra sincère, peu courant en Napa. Notes de prunes, de marmelade de cerise, de thé, de forêt, clou de girofle et tabac blond. La bouche est une véritable merveille et joue la carte de la finesse et de l’élégance plutôt que celle de l'hyper concentration, un contrepied qui joue en faveur d’Eisele Vineyard, fort apprécié en France ! Les tanins sont à la fois mûrs, fins et frais. Potentiel de garde impressionnant !
Suggestion gourmande
Canon de biche en croûte d’olive noire, jus réduit, carottes violettes au cumin.
Avis des Experts
James Suckling
"This is sophisticated and intellectual, with an incredible wall of fine tannins that take you deep down into the soul of the wine. Full-to medium-bodied, tight and soulful. Tar, ash and volcanic-soil flavors. White pepper, too. Great length. Shows the first-growth quality of the vineyards, harking back to the wines of the mid-1970s. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. This needs at least six to seven years of bottle age. Best after 2028."
The Wine Advocate
"Deep purple-black in color, the nose of the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon slowly unfurls to reveal a gorgeous perfume of violets and roses over a core of kirsch, boysenberries and cassis, plus hints of redcurrant jelly and menthol, emerging into wafts of pencil lead and truffles. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is built like a brick house, featuring very firm, wonderfully ripe, grainy tannins and bold freshness to support the vivacious, tightly wound black and red fruit layers, finishing long and mineral laced. It's a stunning, evocative, singular wine that so beautifully captures the long, slow-maturing grace of the 2019 vintage."
Jeb Dunnuck
"I was also able to taste the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon, which is an utterly classic Napa Cabernet with its layered, expansive mouthfeel and majestic style. Red and black currants, savory herbs, tobacco, new leather, and pressed roses all define the aromatics, and it's full-bodied, with a deep, layered mouthfeel, an incredible salinity and minerality, and a gorgeous finish. It's pure class and elegance married with incredible Napa fruit. As with many 2019s, it already offers pleasure yet this should benefit from 3-5 years of bottle age and I wouldn t be surprised to see it evolve for 30+ years."
