Frescobaldi, Mormoreto Cabernet Sauvignon
| Description | Mormoreto 2015 presents itself with an opaque, intense ruby colour and a complex nose: red fruits such as blueberry and raspberry are followed by a balanced bouquet of black jasmine tea and toasted coffee bean with a light touch of vanilla. In the mouth the wine is fresh, complex, persistent and balanced. The tannins blend well with the body resulting in a wine that is velvety on the palate. The acidic component is noteworthy and joins elegantly with the alcoholic content. Tasted January 2018. |
