J. Lohr 2013 Signature Cabernet Sauvignon (Paso Robles)

Country: US / Signature
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: J. Lohr / Paso Robles

This celebration of legendary Jerry Lohr’s 80th birthday is a winner on all fronts. A zesty, uplifting nose of blackberry, cola, licorice, leather and clay leads into a cohesively woven palate of soy, shiitake dust, roast beef and dark chocolate. The acidity is well-measured, the tannins are chalky and grippy and it’s powerful without being flashy.
