2011 Araujo Estate Napa Valley Eisele Vineyard Syrah

94 pts - Wine Advocate

["The 2011 Syrah Eisele Vineyard is redolent of black olives, cracked pepper, savory herbs and licorice. Here, too, varietal notes are especially vivid as a result of the cold vintage. Stem inclusion was a little higher than in the past, and 3% Viognier was added to the blend. There is more than enough intensity here to make me hopeful for the future. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2031. - Antonio Galloni (27-12-2012)"]
