Eisele Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley 2017  - First Bottle

Reviews

99 James Suckling -
The aromas to this great white show wonderful sherbet, limes, green melon, salt and honey blossom. Full to medium body, with a vertical, compact fruit presence, firmness and great length. Such energy and intensity with focus and elegance. Best white of Napa at the moment? Drink or hold.
94+ Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
Bottled in late July, the 2017 Sauvignon Blanc is a real step up from previous vintages, springing from the glass with vibrant lime cordial, orange blossom and grapefruit notes with touches of allspice, honeysuckle, ripe pears, white peaches and struck flint. Medium-bodied with a suggestion of satin to the texture and a fantastic intensity of exuberant citrus fruits and mineral notes, it delivers a very long, refreshing finish. This should age beautifully!

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
First off, happy Memorial Day weekend to all, or as we now know it in Napa, happy BottleRock! As the masses decend upon our little city, we wanted to offer something rockin' this morning! 99-point SB + new Altagracia! American treasure is EXACTLY how we here at FB think of Eisele. One of the all-time greatest Napa Valley vineyards with a fabulous pedigree and track record over the many decades since it was established in the 1880s! Today we are offering the SUBLIME 99-POINT Sauvignon Blanc (super-rare to ever see!) and the sexy-drinking 2016 Altagracia, while they last.

Honestly, I’m still a bit shocked that we even got any Sauvignon Blanc to sell. It’s truly one of Napa Valley’s best, if not THE best. I always love it, but it’s really only now for some odd reason (probably scarcity) that it is now even being rated. Well, 99 points isn’t going to help that! HURRY!

About the Producer

In wine, there is nothing so immutable as the land. Vintages offer variation, as do winemakers and proprietors. Mother Nature is capricious, always wanting the last word. But the land is a constant, its geology and composition immovable. At the heart of every great wine is a piece of land like no other.

First planted to vines in the 1880s, Eisele Vineyard sits in the northeast Napa Valley, just east of Calistoga at the base of the Palisades Mountain range. Farmed organically since 1998 and biodynamically since 2000, the site has been principally dedicated to Cabernet Sauvignon for the last fifty years. Beginning with the inaugural release bearing the Eisele name in 1971, this iconic vineyard has received consistent recognition for possessing one of the great terroirs of Napa Valley. The wines invariably express the exceptional depth, elegance and longevity which are hallmarks of the Eisele Vineyard.

The vision of Eisele’s newest steward, the Pinault family (Chateau Latour) is nothing less than to re-embrace the long history of Eisele Vineyard while realizing the full potential of this remarkable estate. Preserving and expanding upon the vineyard’s distinguished legacy in Napa Valley — and among the great winegrowing estates of the world — is both an honor and their aspiration.
