J. Lohr – Signature Paso Robles – Cabernet Sauvignon

Overview:J. Lohr Signature Cabernet Sauvignon was first produced to honor the 80th birthday of founder Jerry Lohr. This limited release was specially selected and blended from the superb 2017 vintage in Paso Robles. It is both a tribute to Jerry’s pioneering efforts in the region and our red wine portfolio’s ultimate expression of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Beck Vineyard, in the Creston District of Paso Robles, is a unique, high elevation site that sits at 1,700 feet above the early morning fog line. Its calcareous soils and cooling afternoon winds are perfect for growing Cabernet Sauvignon.

Tasting Notes:The Cabernet from this vineyard ripens early with excellent color, purity of fruit, and phenolic maturity. Incorporation of Cabernet Franc brings freshness to the blend, while the rare Bordeaux variety, Saint-Macaire, brings density and a savory character. Malbec add structure, color, and a component of bright fruit.

Pairing:Filet mignon, pepper-crusted ahi tuna

Points:95, WE

Format / ABV:750 ml/14.8%
