Cannavial Verdelho 1870 (bottled in 2016)

this is disappointingly thin and while there is good complexity

This is at once more elegant and spicier as well with its pretty combination of red currant

lush mouthfeel with silky tannin

cassis and earth aromas

full-bodied and obviously well-concentrated yet notably finer flavors possess excellent mid-palate fat that partially buffers the natural tendency of young Latricières towards austerity on the stony and detailed but slightly drying finish as the stems are in evidence

Araujo’s 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard is a picture perfect example of the year

exotic spices

pure and airy red berry fruit scents along with a profusion of floral elements that are also trimmed in a discreet application of wood

There is good volume and concentration to the delicious and vibrant flavors that possess very good mid-palate concentration as well as fine length on the palate coating finish

There is very good richness and volume to the sleekly muscular middle weight flavors that possess just enough minerality to notice

The wine is rich and full-bodied

It exhibits a deep ruby/purple hue in addition to abundant aromas of smoky oak
