Morlet Shiraz Bouquet Garni Bennet Valley 2012 is a powerful and refined wine from Morlet Family Vineyards, sourced from Sonoma’s Bennet Valley. The 2012 vintage, known for its balance and depth, produces a Shiraz with aromas of blackberry, dark cherry, and plum, with layers of black pepper, spice, and toasted oak. The palate is full-bodied and harmonious, with firm tannins and vibrant acidity that balance the rich fruit core. Notes of smoked meat, leather, and earthy minerality add depth, while the finish is long and robust, with a hint of anise. Morlet’s meticulous winemaking, including small-lot production and French oak aging, enhances the wine’s depth and finesse. Perfect for pairing with barbecued ribs or roasted game, this Shiraz is a testament to Sonoma’s ability to produce bold yet balanced wines.
