2013 Memento Mori Cabernet Sauvignon
Third of the blind wines this evening. Super dark purplish ruby red. Tight yet thick nose of sweet spices, graphite and dark berries. Heavy tannins (8/10), this is a powerful wine. Full bodied with tons of dark spices, black cherries and a touch of bark. So strong yet velvety and silky. A bit of gravel in the never ending finish.
Made of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Memento Mori means "Remember that you will die" in Latin but to the founders of MM it means "Remember to Live".
2016 till 2038.
Price Point:
$$$$ - Tasted at K. Laz Wine Collection in Youtville with Kerrin. Release price was $175.00 .Super dark ruby red. Tons of dark berries and baking spices on the nose. Even some molasses or caramelized brown sugar. Moderate plus tannins (7.5/10) with a full body. Almost a sandpaper like texture and solid structure. Dark fruit attack with some minerality in the finish. Notes of blueberries and cassis too. Super long and full finish.
