Description

For serious collectors and enthusiasts, the 2019 Peter Michael 'Au Paradis' Cabernet Sauvignon represents a significant acquisition. This is a meticulously crafted Bordeaux-style blend from Peter Michael's Oakville vineyard, a site known for its distinctive iron-rich, volcanic soils.
The wine displays a deep, concentrated ruby color. On the nose, it presents a complex aromatic profile of dark fruits—cassis, blackberry, and black cherry—interwoven with precise notes of cedar, tobacco leaf, and subtle spice. There are also nuanced undertones of graphite and a faint floral character.
The palate is defined by its structure and depth. It offers a rich, full-bodied expression of dark fruit, supported by firm yet polished tannins that contribute to a velvety texture. The wine maintains a remarkable freshness and balance, avoiding any sense of overripeness or extraction. The finish is extended and persistent, reflecting its inherent quality and the careful aging regimen in French oak.
Critically, the 2019 'Au Paradis' has received exceptionally high scores, reinforcing its status as a benchmark Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. James Suckling awarded it 99 points, highlighting its aromatic intensity and lengthy finish. Vinous and Jeb Dunnuck both rated it 97 points, emphasizing its delineation, energy, and cellar-worthiness. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate also recognized its quality with 96 points, noting its opulence and complex layers.
This is a wine built for the cellar, with a structure and complexity that will continue to evolve and integrate over many years. It is an essential addition for those seeking to acquire top-tier Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.
The bottle has been professionally stored in humidity in temperature controlled environment for the last three years. Invoices are available.
Where available this bottle retails for £229
