Elyse 2005 Morisoli Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Morisoli Vineyard
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Elyse / Napa Valley

The vineyard is in the heart of the Rutherford bench. The wine is rich in fruit and tannins, but a bit clumsy, with a chunky, tannic mouthfeel and jammy, direct blackberry and blueberry fruit flavors. Not ready for drinking now, but well-made, and should age well, as Cabs from this stretch tend to have a long life.
