Product Overview
The 2017 Trujillo Gary Morisoli Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced entirely from the famous vineyard located near the western foothills of the Rutherford AVA and centered within the infamous Rutherford Bench where the dusty, gravely, loam soils produce Cabernets of rich dark fruit and complex structure. Straightway, this Cabernet offers up its generous and seamless aromas of silky dark fruits, black cherry, and cassis complemented by a sweet vanilla note with the subtle hints of the signature earthiness of Rutherford Bench Cabernets. Rich, bold, and mouth filling, if offers lavish flavors of dusty, dark chocolate, cherry, and lush currants. As the wine swirls in the glass, the wonderful aromatics and flavors continuously come forth adding to its depth and complexity. The lush refined tannins are seamlessly integrated with the perfect acidity to carry this wine into the future gracefully. Drink 2021-2035.
