2012 Èloge
Nose: The 2012 Èloge is one of the most ripe and approachable
offerings of this wine to date. Lovely aromas of bright red fruits,
accentuated with coco and floral notes to give a multi layered
aromatic.
The Palate: The 2012 E’loge is dark, racy and voluptuous, with
plenty of dark red cherry, plum, spice, menthol, new leather,
chocolate, espresso and clove nuances.
2012 Vintage: 2012 in Napa was as close to a perfect vintage as we
could ask for in Conn Valley. We harvested at the end of October and
picked the largest yield we have ever had at Conn Valley Vineyards.
This is a vintage we are extremely excited about, it truly shows off
how wonderful a spot we have in Conn Valley, and how skilled our
team is at growing grapes and making wine.
