Product Description
AG96 (Morlet Family Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Mon Chevalier Sonoma Red) "The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Mon Chevalier is a powerful, youthful Knights Valley Cabernet. Dark red/purplish fruit, graphite, leather, incense, menthol and spice all race out of the glass. At ten years of age, the 2013 remains an infant, with tons of fruit and less in the way of aromatic development."
RP95 "The Bordeaux varietals range from a tiny 180 cases of Morlet's Force de La Nature (100% Cabernet Franc from the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard) to 650 cases of his Knights Valley Mon Chevalier. The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Mon Chevalier, a blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc, 3% Merlot and the rest Malbec and Petit Verdot, offers cassis, mocha, loamy soil undertones, plenty of chocolate, blackberry and a full-bodied, lush style. Peter Michael was the first to exploit just how superb Knights Valley Bordeaux varietals can be, but Morlet has certainly proven with this wine what is possible. This is a beauty to drink now and over the next 20+ years."
