2015 | Memento Mori | Cabernet Sauvignon Las Piedras

The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon checks in as 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that spent 22 months in 100% new French oak. Its inky-purple color is followed by a sweet unctuous, undeniably sexy wine that has tons of creme de cassis, toasted spice, graphite, and white chocolate.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: A decadent blend of fruit from Beckstoffer Dr. Crane, Beckstoffer Las Piedras, Oakville Ranch and Weitz vineyards, aged 22 months in 100% new French oak, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon has a very deep purple-black color and gorgeous nose of exotic spices and incense notions—cinnamon stick, cloves, star anise, fenugreek and sandalwood—with a cassis and plum preserves core, plus hints of cigar box and menthol. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is rich and opulent, with seductively velvety tannins and invigorating freshness, finishing very long with provocative earthy suggestions coming through.

Producer Information

Memento Mori is a limited-production winery that specializes in Cabernet Sauvignon from some of the most internationally acclaimed vineyard sites in Napa Valley. Memento Mori was founded in 2010 by three childhood friends, Adriel Lares, Hayes Drumwright, and Adam Craun, who have committed themselves to crafting sophisticated wines of tremendous balance, honesty and profundity.The name, Memento Mori, is taken from an ancient Latin philosophy that reminds us of our mortality and the inevitability of death. Inspired by the serious health scares, family tragedy and times of trial they have experienced together throughout their friendship, Memento Mori is a shared mantra which the founders interpret as “Remember to Live.”That ethos is palpable in every bottle.Winemaker Sam Kaplan translates each vineyard site into balanced, terroir-driven wines that tell the story of Napa Valley. This winemaking philosophy culminates in Memento Mori’s flagship Napa Valley Cabernet.
