2011 vintage. Difficult vintage for Napa and environs to be sure. Usual mountain suspects seemed to fare better than valley floor stuff. All that said, more than a few properties re-releasing 2011's out into the wild and they are, generally, drinking very well. Not improving but reaching the top of their respective bell curves. This is one such story. No baby fat left. Serious mineral/earth influences throughout. The nose takes this into hello! territory. The finish signs the deed to the property. Hit this in the next 3-4 years for maximum enjoyment. 02.26.25. — 7 months ago

Bright ruby red color. Bountiful aromas of red berries and dried violets. Pallet is full of strawberry and raspberry fruit with hints of black tea, baking spices, earth and pepper spice. Just a bit of a “gamey” quality as well. Nice hint of oak on the clean finish. Fine tannins and bright acidity. Creamy texture. Rich and nicely rounded. Absolutely a “California-Style” Pinot Noir. Nice choice, Mark Smith. — 3 years ago

This is it. Almost perfect pinot noir. Light, but with a leather and vanilla. Fresh with red fruits: a cherry, a raspberry. And something else. But keep it a secret. — 5 years ago

Bright, smooth, very pleasant to drink. Will be even better in at least a few years. — 8 years ago

Pale lemon color with aromas of ripe fruits, citrus, vanilla and nutty scents. On the palate complex flavors of apple, peach, pineapple and lemon citrus, well balanced with acidity on a nice mouthfeel. Long finish ending with oak, vanilla, mineral and citrus notes, will continue to age. A beautiful Chardonnay. — 6 months ago

Smooth night for a cab. More like a merlot. — 13 years ago
Absolutely smoking hot tonight. Competed with the Mica and Modus Sage Ridge. Coravin’d and presented so well. Soft and pure palate. Blueberry pie nose. Medium tannins with a broad shouldered structure. Nice balance with excellent weight and texture. Bright acidity and sweetness finished off what I considered to be the best vintage I’ve tasted from Sinegal — 6 months ago

Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
KAPOW! Perfection in California Cabernet Sauvignon. Sometimes you get what you pay for. This is one of those times. The bouquet is fantastic blackberry rhubarb pie. The huge dark berries upfront are fantastic. The chocolate and vanilla on the bed ballad are like velvet on the tongue. Then that beautiful Okey finish with minimal dryness and a wonderful sweet ending but absolutely no sugar if that makes any sense. This is the after taste that all Cabernet producers try to achieve.  well Ehlers have done it.  — 6 years ago
Nice blend. — 8 years ago
