Domaine Naturaliste Morus Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

The ‘Morus’ has all the qualities we love in Cabernet Sauvignon; acid structure, assertive tannins and layered fruit. The tannins are fine and graphite-like supporting the ripe cassis black fruit that is concentrated but classy. There is a fine boned oak regime adding layers of finesse and structure to the fruit and acid drive. Tell-tale leafy notes typical of Margaret River add a finishing touch to the bottle age complexity. This is Margaret River Cabernet in all its glory, ready now but will improve over the next 8-10 years. Drink: 2021-2031. Score – 97. (Annette Lacey, MW, winepilot.com, Nov. 2021)
