Tasting notes
All Cabernet Sauvignon from Luc Morlet's "home" vineyard, purchased in 2010, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Morlet Estate features elegant, minty accents over a bed of cassis and dark chocolate. It's medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety yet lacy and savory on the lingering, elegant finish.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Morlet Estate is a darker, black-fruited beast of a wine that has lots of structure and richness, yet stays balanced, pure, and incredibly drinkable. Giving up notes of black currants, chocolate, iron, tobacco, and crushed stone-like minerality, this full-bodied, powerful, yet balanced St. Helena Cabernet needs 4-5 years of bottle age and will evolve for decades.
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Morlet Estate is sourced from the vineyard just above the winery in St. Helena. Rich and pliant, the 2019 possesses tremendous depth and textural resonance. Bright floral accents lift a core of ripe red cherry fruit. It's a super distinctive wine from the St. Helena's Northern Corridor. There's real depth and substance here.
