The Character
Overall Generous with potent opulence
Aromas Blackberry compote, vanilla, cedar and graphite
Mouthfeel Velvety, sumptuous, concentrated
Tasting Notes Visually, the wine is dark mahogany in color, bursting with beautiful intense aromas of black cherry, blackberries, vanilla, freshly cut Ipe wood, fresh herbs, cedar, sarsaparilla, and graphite. On the palate, the wine is rich with soft, fresh tannins, boasting a generously layered midpalate with flavors of baking spices, unsweetened cocoa, black summer berry coulis, and a hint of dried cranberries and figs, culminating in a well-balanced, dry finish. Very approachable upon release, decanting is recommended to allow the full expression of the bottle bouquet to develop. Cellaring 3-5 years will be beneficial but can easily be kept 25+ years.
Pairings Roasted leg of lamb, Carne abovada
Awards 97pts Robert Parker, 97pts Jeb Dunnuck, 92pts Vinous
Sustainability Certified Organic
The Story
Named after founder Maurice Marciano. “M” is a terroir-driven, richly layered French Bordeaux-style blend that balances the density and finesse of our Estate Cabernet Sauvignon with the silky texture and perfumed aromatics of our best blocks of Cabernet Franc.
About Marciano Estate
Brand Story
Southwest of St. Helena, in the Napa Valley is our 20 acre estate and winery. The property was a part of the historic Bourn estate dating back to 1872 at the beginnings of winemaking in the Napa Valley. Our winemaker, Morgan Maurèze, is a fifth-generation winemaker who grew up working at Dominus alongside his father. After completing his BS Viticulture and Enology from UC Davis he worked in France for Petrus, Chateau Haut-Brion & La Mission Haut-Brion in Bordeaux and DRC or Domaine de la Romanée Conti in Burgundy. When he returned back to the Napa Valley he worked with Andy Erickson (Screaming Eagle, Dalle Valle, etc). Our consulting team for the winemaking are Benoit Touquette (winemaker at Realm) & Michel Rolland. Mr. David Abreu planted the vineyards and is the Vineyard Manager.
