WINE DESCRIPTION

Ehlers Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is a premium wine produced by Ehlers Estate, a renowned winery located in the St. Helena appellation of Napa Valley. The vineyard features unique terroir, with gravelly loam soil and a microclimate that allows for optimal ripening of the grapes. The winemaking process involves hand-harvesting and careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation in small batches and aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is a classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, with rich flavors of dark fruit, cassis, and chocolate, balanced by firm tannins and a long, elegant finish. This wine is a perfect choice for those seeking a high-quality, full-bodied red wine with a sense of place and history.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

The Ehlers Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is a remarkable red wine.On the nose, it reveals aromas of blackberries, currants, and dark chocolate, complemented by hints of cedar and tobacco. The palate is rich and velvety, showcasing flavors of ripe black fruits, plum, and vanilla, with well-integrated tannins and a long, elegant finish. Pair this exquisite Cabernet Sauvignon with grilled ribeye steak, braised short ribs, or roasted lamb. While enjoyable now, this wine has excellent cellaring potential, allowing it to develop and evolve for the next 10 to 15 years.
