Tasting notes
Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Kayli Morgan Vineyard reveals a lovely savory nose of olives and smoked meats plus a core of kirsch, black raspberries and sassafras with wafts of cassis and violets plus a waft of Sichuan pepper. The palate is full-bodied, rich and plush with a beautiful perfumed fruit finish.

(15.5% alcohol): Bright ruby-red. Multidimensional nose combines black raspberry, blackberry, menthol, licorice, lavender and mint, complicated by truffle and sexy oak notes and a whiff of citrus fruit. Tactile, densely packed and savory, communicating a powerful mineral salinity, like wet earth after a rain, but also compelling sweetness. Penetrating and sharply delineated but still extremely backward. Finishes firmly tannic, fresh and long, with a whiplash of flavor and terrific lift. Remarkable wine in the making--and likely to be long-lived.

Bright ruby-red. Aromas of black raspberry, licorice, graphite and flowers are complicated by exotic spices. Densely packed and remarkably deep, with the velvety black fruit and mineral flavors gaining red cherry and floral qualities as the wine opened in the mouth. At once thick and penetrating, showing more obvious tannins today than the Ark but finishing with outstanding echoing persistence and energy.
