Morgado Cabernet Sauvignon Sage Ridge Vineyard 2016

Russell Bevan protege crushes it with her 2016 Sage Ridge vineyard Cab! A cult in the making! Got a hanky? You’ll need it -- for the tears of joy. WOW! 98 points, and a knockout new Cabernet from the fantastic 2016 Napa vintage --- only 5 cases to sell and we had to beg for that! This is mountain fruit at its most concentrated and sexy with pure cassis, and chocolate covered cherries pouring out of the glass. This is absolutely packed power, depth and explosive fruit flavors. Jeb Dunnuck said it well in his 98-point review: "This thrilling Cabernet has full-bodied power, terrific purity, no hard edges, and a layered, deep, rich, and serious style." Read his full review below.

Just one peak over from the infamous Pritchard Hill, perched above Lake Hennessey, lies the majestic Sage Ridge Vineyard. This is where Kimberly Hatcher, a San Francisco firefighter by day and winemaker by night (who learned the craft under none other than Russell Bevan) sources her fruit from for this powerhouse Cabernet.
