From the Winery about the 2011 Cuvée Katrina Eileen

Named after our first-born daughter, Cuvée Katrina Eileen is primarily composed of fruit

from a vineyard in the Western Hills of Yountville, where yields are miniscule. The

extremely rocky soil of the vineyard produces concentrated clusters of perfectly ripened

Cabernet Sauvignon. In German, the name “Katrina” represents purity and fittingly, this

wine is made entirely from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape, providing a pure expression

of this decadent varietal. It also reflects our daughter’s personality with flavors that are

complex, unreserved and expressive.

 

Tasting Notes

Fresh blackberries along with notes of pastry crust are immediately evident in the glass. The

2011 Cuvée Katrina Eileen is a perfumed, voluptuous fruit focused wine with a rich

mouth feel and a long smooth finish with reminders of the sweet fruit found on the nose.
