Tasting notes
Memento Mori's flagship 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon blends five sites to deliver a sumptuous mix of red and black cherries, a hint of cassis and a touch of vanilla. It even seems more fruit-forward than the single-vineyard wines. Medium- to full-bodied, it comes across as almost a bit zesty and perhaps a bit coarse-textured, but it's bright, engaging and showing ample concentration and length. It's probably more like the 2017 than the 2018, 2019 or 2021, just slightly affected by the vintage's unique heatwave.

Awesome levels of red, blue, and black fruits intermix with chocolate, spice, and new leather notes in the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon. Full-bodied, round, and layered on the palate, with lifted orange blossom and fine tannins, this brilliant 100% Cabernet Sauvignon will benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age and keep for two decades.
