It's medium- to full-bodied, concentrated and tannic but also fresh and clean. Yes, it needs time, but it should be drinking well by 2030 and then go at least another decade.\" - Joe Czerwinski (Oct 2025)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e92 Points - James Suckling:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Deep and succulent black fruit, layered with hints of coffee, sweet spices and earthy undertones. Full-bodied, dense and dark-fruited, with slightly lifted yet balanced acidity. The tannins are ripe and nicely integrated into the wine. Finishes smooth and focused. Better from 2027.\" - Andrii Stetsiuk (Mar 2025)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e91 Points - Decanter Magazine:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon hails from the historic Volker Eisele Estate vineyard, nestled on the eastern slopes of Napa Valley. Explosive kirsch and raspberry compote aromas lift from the glass, layered with heady rose petal notes. Medium-bodied with striking mineral intensity, the palate showcases grippy tannins and a vibrant core of riper blue and black-toned fruits that unfold on the lengthy finish. Grown at 275–335 metres (900–1,100 feet) atop clay-loam and shale soils, the vineyard was certainly tested by the 2022 heatwave. Yet, the wine retains impressive tension and energy. Though somewhat coiled now, it holds promise to evolve beautifully with time in bottle.
