Tasting Notes
Displaying a very intense bouquet of black currant, candied red and black cherries and mocha, intermixed with hints of blond tobacco leaves and earthy notes of leather and toasted red pepper. This wine possesses youthful, yet sweet tannins and is characterized by its overall richness, suave character and approachability.
Method
Les Petits Morlet Cabernet is crafted from younger vines grown on many of the properties that Luc works with.
