Ehlers 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon

93 POINTS — Wine Spectator
“Beautifully crafted and slow to unfold, but does so with wonderful grace and finesse, offering a mix of cherry, dark berry, cedar, anise and crushed rock flavors.”

92 POINTS — Wine Enthusiast magazine
“Touches of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot figure into the mix of this impressive wine, a study in reductive oak and cherry vanilla. Substantial concentration belies an underlying foundation of acidity, that lingers and supports flashes of cinnamon and black cherry.”

Winemaker’s Notes
“Dark black and scarlet color, rich and complex, this is a classic Napa Valley Cabernet with an underlying earthiness and soft fat tannins woven around a black plum and red fruit melody, and built on a firm acidic framework. Long finish, lingering impressions of cinnamon, coffee and dark chocolate. A classic Ehlers Estate “1886” that will continue to improve for decades.”
