Red dry
Eisele Vineyard Syrah 2020 is a synthesis of elegance and power, reflecting one of the most prestigious terroirs in Napa Valley. This exceptional red wine is made from carefully selected biodynamically cultivated Syrah grapes grown in the Eisele Vineyards, renowned for its deep gravel and stone soils, perfectly suited to the Syrah grape variety.
The wine has a rich, concentrated taste with nuances of dark berries, blueberries, plums and black olives. Well-expressed minerality, a gentle touch of smoke, pepper and subtle herbal nuances create a deep, complex and long-lasting aftertaste. The wine is aged in French oak barrels, distinguished by a delicate balance of tannin structure and longevity.
Limited edition wine.
Serve at 16 - 18°C with game stew, wild poultry, lamb dishes, roast beef or long-aged cheeses.
Black fruit with crushed stone, nutmeg and some white pepper. Medium to full body. This really sneaks up on you at the end with cracked-pepper notes. 25% whole cluster. Cask and amphora. 250 cases made. Drink or hold.
Known previously as the Araujo Estate, Eisele Vineyard is now owned by François Pinault of Château Latour in Bordeaux.
First planted to vines in the 1880s, Eisele Vineyard sits in the northeast Napa Valley, just east of Calistoga at the base of the Palisades Mountain range. Farmed organically since 1998 and biodynamically since 2000, the site has been principally dedicated to Cabernet Sauvignon for the last fifty years. Beginning with the inaugural release bearing the Eisele name in 1971, this iconic vineyard has received consistent recognition for possessing one of the great terroirs of Napa Valley. The wines invariably express the exceptional depth, elegance and longevity which are hallmarks of the Eisele Vineyard.
Eisele's vision is nothing less than to re-embrace the long history of Vineyard while realizing the full potential of this remarkable estate. Preserving and expanding upon the vineyard’s distinguished legacy in Napa Valley — and among the great winegrowing estates of the world — is both an honor and our aspiration. Through intellectual rigor, humility, and with the utmost respect for the land, our aim is to make wines that speak of the Eisele Vineyard in the most authentic way possible.
