J. Lohr - Seven Oaks - Cabernet Sauvignon (375 ml)

Overview: Rainfall totals were higher than average in 2019. We normally see slightly later budbreak in wet years, which delays the bloom, veraison, and harvest stages for the entire vintages. With adequate canopy and moisture to endure early summer heat spikes, our Cabernet Sauvignon was able to ripen well into the last weeks of October. This led to extraordinary fruit intensity and depth of color. Our proprietary fermentation methods extracted the full flavor of Cabernet with abundant pigment while twelve months of barrel aging contributed complexity and lovely pastry and baking spice aromas and flavors.

Tasting Notes: The J. Lohr Estates Seven Oaks Cabernet Sauvignon is dense and dark at the core, with a brilliant garnet hue around the rim. Ripe fruit aromas of black cherry and currant are accented by notes of toasted pastry, hazelnut, and vanilla from our barrel aging program. Big, juicy red-fruit flavors infuse the palate while softly textured tannins lead to a long finish.

Pairing: Delicious with pulled-pork sandwiches and coleslaw or your favorite lasagna dish.
