Morlet Family Vineyards - Les Petits Morlet Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 (750ml) Puente AltoLes Petits Morlet Oakville, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon The Les Petits Morlet Cabernet Sauvignon is up with the finest wines of the vintage at the price, and Id certainly be happy to drink a bottle any time over the coming decade. Jeb Dunnuck, Dec. 2023 The medium to full bodied palate is juicy and expressive, with fine grained tannins and a lively line, finishing with a skip in its step. Lisa Perrotti Brown MW, Feb. 2024 From a judicious blend of

cigar box and toast

After a very concentrated entry and mid-palate

Aromas of dark cherries

This wine offers a medium finish with some fine texture on the dry tannins

but they are emphatically dry at the finish where there are notes of licorice and roasted meat

the execution

black cherry and wild blackberry

Tenuta Sette Cieli is located between Bolgheri and Castagneto Carducci

the proportions of grape varieties are rather atypical for the appellation: a perfect 50/50 divide between Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon

Rich in aromatic notes with hints of ripe

giving the grapes a particular vibrancy

Drink it over the coming 15 years or so
