About the Wine
Eternal Embrace is the creation of Arling Blaze, a boutique project built on Napa-level expertise and a commitment to quality. Initially crafted by Napa veteran Chad Alexander (known for his work at the prestigious Mt. Veeder’s Hess Collection), this project now thrives under the guidance of Robert Smith.
Robert’s experience reads like a winemaking masterclass. He started at top Napa Valley wineries like Quintessa, Seven Stones, and Covert Estate, even spending time in South Africa to refine his skills. At Quixote Winery, he perfected his craft, mastering age-worthy Cabernet and Petite Sirah. Today, he’s celebrated for creating wines that bring together rich fruit flavors and a smooth, elegant structure.
Robert’s journey through some of the world’s top vineyards and mentors, including Aaron Pott and Philippe Melka, has infused this wine with exceptional finesse and complexity. With his signature touch, Eternal Embrace is a testament to the art of winemaking, capturing both depth and immediate appeal.
This Cabernet embodies Paso Robles’ warmth, elevated with Napa’s sophistication. With 10% aging in American oak, it brings just the right hint of cedar and spice to complement its naturally rich, juicy character. It’s a wine for all occasions—pair it with your favorite roast or enjoy it on its own for a pure taste of California.
Originally priced at $45, this Cabernet is now available at an incredible $21.99. Don’t miss out on this huge discount—grab a bottle, and let Eternal Embrace tell its story, one sip at a time.
2021 was an outstanding vintage in Paso Robles. Vinous Media blessed this vintage with a 95pt review, and said: "
The 2021s from Paso Robles are classic, powerful, structured, complex and long-aging wines. Most are impossible to ignore today but with the potential to over-impress over the coming decade or more."
Tasting Notes
96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot. Vibrant and full of energy, this 2022 Paso Robles Cab delivers pure California sunshine in a glass. Bursting with ripe blackberry and dark cherry, it has a playful edge while still capturing Paso’s signature richness. With 10% American oak lending hints of sweet spice and a touch of cedar, it’s both lively and structured—compact, punchy, and undeniably captivating.
