Morisoli Vineyard located in heart of Rutherford Ranch, a renowned Napa area. Deep Ruby with pronounced aromas of black fruits, floral and complex spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and cherry with vanilla and cedar with a creamy texture. Vivid acidity, well-structured ripe tannins, long finish on this full-bodied wine ending with fruit, oak and spice character. Should develop nicely over next 5+ years. Outstanding! Tasting Sample!

What a surprising treat. Still bursting with rich, lush, dark fruit, plus some grubby age, with mushroom, earth, maybe some black olive.

Dark fruit, a bit of tannins, but very mellow and highly drinkable.
