Lot #20. Araujo Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard 1994

Description: Consists of 2 Magnums, 1.5L
Score: 97 NM.
"The highlight of the Araujo vertical. A deep garnet core with dark brick rim. It has a broody nose at first, plum, prune, minerals, moderate definition but not much lift. Medium-bodied palate, ultra-smooth entry and seamless tannins. Satin texture, very focused with good acidity. The power creeps up on you, real crescendo on the finish with a real kick on the back-palate, almost a citrus-like in its freshness. This remains primal after 12-years...and it will need another twelve! Magnificent." Neal Martin, Wine Journal, May 2009
Provenance: The Griffin Cellar
Notes: Very lightly scuffed capsules, very lightly scuffed labels.
