One of the more perfumed, elegant wines, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Morgan's Way reveals a deep ruby/plum hue as well as incredible red and black fruit, new leather, pressed flowers, graphite, and loamy earth. It's full-bodied and powerful, yet also ethereal and weightless. As with all of Woodbridge’s wines, it’s going to age gracefully.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2021 Morgan's Way Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon needs a lot of shaking to wake up savory scents of beef drippings, black olives, and Indian spices, leading to a core of blackcurrant cordial, boysenberries, and mulberries. Full-bodied, the palate is densely laden with energetic, muscular black and blue fruit flavors, supported by firm, granular tannins and perfectly balanced freshness, finishing on a lingering ferrous note.

Shimmering like a finely cut ruby jewel, this wine exudes elegant raspberry and black cherry fruit, underscored by white pepper and intense iron-and-graphite-like minerality. Blood orange and lavender stem notes intermix with black liquorice and charred sagebrush, creating a complex bouquet. Medium to full-bodied, it possesses energy and muscularity, a perfect epitome of power and grace, much like a ballet dancer in motion. These 2021 Hundred Acre wines are incredibly pure, precise, and ethereal. While I can describe the flavours and textures, it almost feels unnecessary—this wine is beautiful, elegant, and mighty in every way. Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine is sourced from Hundred Acre’s estate Morgan’s Way vineyard (formerly Kayli Morgan), a 3.6-hectare site situated north of St. Helena on the eastern side of Silverado Trail, at the base of Howell Mountain. The vineyard is named after Jayson Woodbridge’s daughter, Morgan, and the wine is aged for at least 30 months in extremely fine, centre-cut French oak barriques with ultra-tight graining.
