Volker Eisele 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Las Flores

The fruit for Volker Eisele’s 2012 Las Flores Cabernet Sauvignon comes from a section of the estate vineyard called the Las Flores block. Deep burgundy in color, this Cabernet Sauvignon opens with aromas of blueberry, black currant, and spicy black plum with a touch of oaky smokiness. In the mouth, the wine is expressive and bold yet creamy and elegant, with flavors of espresso, black plum, cassis, and sweetly charred oak. A hint of vanilla persists on the finish.
