Note di degustazione
The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Solomon Lot 70 reveals a dense ruby/purple color, more blueberry and blackberry fruit intermixed with chocolate and espresso roast, and full-throttle flavors. It is a rich, powerful, concentrated 2008 that slightly eclipses his Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. It is a 15-20-year wine. A quick look at barrel samples of the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa and 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Solomon Lot 70 reveal similar qualitative styles. Both may be slightly more fruit forward than their 2008 counterparts, but they are dense, rich and seriously endowed. The Solomon Lot 70 again shows lots of chocolate and roasted coffee characteristics. Are these the world's greatest kosher wines? Tel. (707) 963-3887

In partnership with Leslie Rudd (Proprietor of Rudd Winery and Dean and DeLuca gourmet shops), Morgan has produced a luxury-priced kosher cuvee, the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Solomon. This stunning offering comes from Rudd’s vineyards on Mt. Veeder and the Oakville Corridor. Creme de cassis, violet, blackberry, and smoky oak aromas are followed by a silky-textured, rich, concentrated wine displaying a terrific texture and finish. This beauty should evolve for 15 or more years. Jeff Morgan continues to fashion what may be the world’s finest kosher wines. Tel. (707) 963-3887; Fax (707) 963-8394
