Deep ruby red. A pinch of Rutherford Dust on the attack of the nose followed up by some bitter cocoa, dried spices, damp leaves and blackberries. Medium plus tannins (7/10) with a medium plus body. Great structure and acidity on the palate with strawberries, light blackberries, some cinnamon, a touch of vanilla and dark gravel. Very dry and long finish. Drink till 2032.

Aged for 30 months in 60% new French oak. Made up of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot. Only 928 cases produced.

Wonderful dark color, deep fruit but not fruity, leather and earthy. Big smile after the swallow!

2007 vintage poured on Feb. 4, 2023. Deep garnet color with aromas of licorice and black cherry. Soft tannins with a medium finish. Outstanding Morisoli Vineyard Cabernet.
