2021 Ehlers Estate '1886' Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Winemaker Notes: The 2021 1886 is dark and brooding, with a diverse range of aromas ranging from crushed blackberries and red cassis to hibiscus blossom and smoked paprika. In the mouth it is svelte, delivering a long, structured experience detailed by flavors of steeped flowers, berry compote and hoisin sauce. This is a wine of sublime finess, and will age for several decades to come.
Vintage: Of the many great vintages
here in Napa, 2021 is high
amongst them. A dry
winter and warm spring
limited vine growth,
resulting in small, intensely
concentrated berries. A
mild autumn allowed for
ideal ripening conditions,
delivering perfectly
matured fruits to the great
relief of winemakers
everywhere. The wines will
slowly unfurl over what
will be an exceptionally
long window, each stage
revealing new dimensions
and features.
