The 2008 Mormoreto is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot aged two years in French oak barrels. It opens with excellent richness and density in its dark red fruit, but then loses quite a bit of intensity on the mid-palate and finish. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2018.
