J. Lohr 2010 Cuvée POM Red (Paso Robles)

Country: US / Cuvée POM
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend California
Winery: J. Lohr / Paso Robles

The nose on the winery’s annual Pomerol-focused blend of mostly Cabernet Franc and Merlot remains tightly wound, with purple fruit and tobacco just barely poking out. It’s richly textured on the palate but the dark fruit flavors remain elegantly restrained throughout the sipping experience.
