2021 J Lohr Carols Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Carol’s Vineyard lies in northern St. Helena along the Napa River. It is planted to 27 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon (Clone 337 on 3309 rootstock) and 4.3 acres of Petit Verdot (Clone 400 on 3309 rootstock). The well-drained, gravelly, sandy loam soil here and the Bordeaux-like climate of the Napa Valley is ideally suited to producing richly textured, luxury-quality Cabernet.

Displays fragrant black cherry and cassis layered with hazelnut and patisserie aromas from French oak barrel aging. Dark berry flavours saturate the palate and intertwine with well-tuned tannins and spice notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cocoa.
