2020 Morlet Family Cabernet Sauvignon Passionnement

The single-varietal 2020 Passionnement Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple in color. After a little shaking, notes of creme de cassis, black cherry preserves, and blackberry pie emerge cautiously from the glass, followed by a fragrant undercurrent of graphite, damp soil, and black olives. The medium to full-bodied palate is tightly knit at this youthful stage, with savory and mineral layers and a firm, grainy texture backed by just enough freshness, finishing long and earthy.
