One of the best wines and Cabernets in the tasting. Made by Sam Kaplan. 95-97 with 10 years of proper cellaring.

It is blended from the following sites; Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard, Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard, Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard, Weitz Vineyard, and Oakville Ranch Vineyard. Not inexpensive $300.

The name, Memento Mori, is taken from an ancient Latin philosophy that reminds us of our mortality and the inevitability of death. So, forgo patience, I guess?

Sophisticated bouquet! Oak and dark fruit with plentiful tannins. Superb wine that probably benefits from another 5-10 years in the cellar. My rating is on promise! — 2 years ago

This is a classic and great Napa cab. Well balanced. Enough wood and enough fruit. Enough tannin. Thanks for sharing it with us Pete. — 2 years ago
