This was the unicorn “Vielles Vigne” bottling. Might hang in for a decade or more. Great job Tony Soter. Special fruit to work with that inaugural year

Soft with dark plum and black cherry. Some dried herbs notes. Supple, softened with the age. Really lovely and pretty and balanced. Certainly Life ahead, but really great now. Excellent

Beautifully pure wine. Blackcurrant and a minty extension. Just wow.

A friend brought a 1991 Mag of Araujo Estate Eisele Vineyard, we believe the 1st. Vintage. When first opened it had a little funk. Decanted for 2-hrs. This wine was beautiful, it had no bricking, deep ruby color. The nose had cassis, leather, cedar, & a hint of red & black fruit. The mouth feel was decadent with velvety tannins. In the palate black currant, cedar, touch leather & earthiness. Very impressive & paired wonderful with a rid roast with trumpet mushrooms! Thanks Rick

Started out rather tannic and tight but blossomed into a fleshier shadow of what I remembered this wine to be. I'm drinking my last bottle soon.
