This is still a work in progress as I upload tasting notes and wine labels from as far as 1999... Check back once in a while to get the updates.

1992 Araujo Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard

Dinner at Terra in St. Helena.

1992 Araujo Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard
- Wow!  So nice!  The nose showed a bit of stewed fruit at first, with some glycerin, then coffee, sweet strawberries came out after 45 minutes, as well as a hint of smoke.  Spicy on the after palate, long finish, smooth tannins.  This was really delicious.  Araujo is never a big, powerful wine.  Rather, smooth and silky.

Bought from Winebid for USD 240.
