2015 Morlet, Cabernet Sauvignon Mon Chevalier, Knights Valley 1x750ml

Vinous 96

The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Mon Chevalier is sumptuous and opulent, a reflection of accumulated drought and heat spikes at the end of the growing season. A decidedly flamboyant Mon Chevalier, the 2015 is wonderfully plush and exotic. The 2015 is a total pleasure bomb, and such a surprise in this challenging year. It's a terrific effort from Jodie and Luc Morlet. [Antonio Galloni, 01/10/2024]

"Composed of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon with smaller proportions of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Mon Chevalier has a very deep garnet-purple color and vibrant nose of red currant, red plums and lavender with fresh black berries and black cherries, plus wafts of dried herbs and fragrant earth. Medium to full-bodied, the palate reveals the full spectrum of Cabernet flavors, with lovely fine-grained tannins and great freshness providing a firm frame for the tightly wound flavors, finishing long and earthy/minerally. Just gorgeous. 850 cases were made." [Lisa Perrotti-Brown, 31/10/2017]
