Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Morisoli Borges offers up notes of redcurrant jelly, black raspberries and stewed plums with hints of fruitcake, hoisin, balsamic and Chinese five spice. Medium-bodied, the palate gives subtle black fruit preserves and spicy flavors with a chewy texture and lifted finish.

Sourced all from the famed "Rutherford-Bench" section of the valley and all Cabernet, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Morisoli-Borges Vineyard sports a saturated purple hue as well as loads of spice, crushed violets, leafy herbs, chocolate, and cedar all supported by beautiful blueberry and wild strawberry fruits. Plush and sexy on the palate, with full-bodied richness and more opulence and decadence than most in the vintage, it hits all the right spots and is a beautifully balanced, sexy 2017 to enjoy over the coming 20-25 years or more.
