Morlet Family Vineyards, Passionnement Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Passionnement comes from a site in Oakville (there’s a tiny portion from St. Helena) and is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. It offers a ripe, sweetly fruited, elegant, yet also powerful style that just glides over the palate with no sense of heaviness or coarseness. Revealing notes of crème de cassis, crushed flowers, graphite, and spice, this cuvée always shines for its seamless, elegant personality, yet it never lacks for density or richness.
