Tasting notes
A highly promising wine, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Eileen is striking for its silkiness and purity. There are no hard edges in this nicely balanced, pretty Cabernet Sauvignon. Signature blue and black fruit notes flesh out on the finish.

A highly promising wine, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Eileen is striking for its silkiness and purity. There are no hard edges in this nicely balanced, pretty Cabernet Sauvignon. Signature blue and black fruit notes flesh out on the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2018. Chef Michael Chiarello makes these wines with oenologist Thomas Rivers Brown. The 2010s have always had a distinctly super-ripe quality, something that has only become more accentuated over the last year. Tel. (707) 256-0750; wines@chiarellovineyards.com
