Morlet Family Vineyards ‘Mon Chevalier’ 2014

“The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon ‘Mon Chevalier’ offers sensational notes of crème de cassis, graphite, camphor, and loamy earth characteristics, full body, incredible elegance and purity, and a building sense of minerality on the finish. It’s both powerful and elegant, and already impossible to resist.” Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com, June 2018

Situated on the foothills of Knights Valley, near Calistoga, our vineyard, comprised of rocky clay loam Red Hills soil and benefits from its proximity to Mount St. Helena. The warm and windy climate is ideal for the long ripening of the red Bordeaux varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot. Handcrafted using classical winemaking techniques, this special wine is dedicated to our son, Paul Morlet. It is ‘My Knight’ or ‘Mon Chevalier.’
