Jackson Estate 2012 Hawkeye Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon (Alexander Valley)

Country: US / Hawkeye Mountain
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Jackson Estate / Alexander Valley

From a site with elevation rising as high as 2,200 feet, this wine delivers tremendous complexity and minerality, the grapes from volcanic soils. Meaty, with a wisp of smoky char, it’s ripe and full bodied in cherry and cassis, nuances of bay leaf and rocky tannin.
