Hundred Acre Vineyard
Kayli Morgan Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
2008 vintage. Decanted and tasted after two hours. Some fine sediment. Ripe, plummy nose. Medium-heavy body. Ripe, plummy flavors. Pushed through approx 1/8 of a glass and just couldn’t any more any longer. Lacking any respectable semblance of balance. And I thought the old '90's Bryant Family Cabs came in as über-low, strafing fruit bombs…10.25.24.

Another favorite on mine! Color - a purplish red magenta. Nose - Blue fruit, crushed rock and vanilla burst in scent from the glass—a stewed meat, spice, cedar menthol lingers. Taste - dark blueberry fruit with a dark tart cherry following. A silky feel as it coats the mouth—cream brûlée notes float giving the wine a subtle sweetness. At the mid-pallet pepper dry herbs and cedar-spice give it a long dry finish. A great evening to celebrate national wine and cheese day—yum yum.

7/25 is National Wine and Cheese Day...we must partake!
1.5 hour decant(decent chunky sediment). An audacious dark magenta color. On the nose: nice aromas of crushed rocks, forest floor, blue fruit, stewed smoked meat, slight menthol, vanilla. Taste: a hedonistic wine with blueberry, pencil lead, pepper, dried herbs, and a dark cherry creme de cassis long finish ....med to full body wine with wonderful soft and silky tannins.

Balanced, fruity (black fruit, plum, cherry), vanilla, rich and luscious and smooth tapered finish. Showing beautifully this Christmas Eve.
