Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley 2018 (750ml)

Cherry, raspberry, and dried herb aromas laced with hints of vanilla and tobacco. The palate has a charming weight and velvety texture filled with intense flavors of black cherries and blackberries, all elevated by a lovely backbone of spice notes from extended aging in French oak barrels. Blackberries and hints of dried herbs linger through the long, spice-kissed finish.

The dark fruit flavors, silky palate, and structure make it a lovely wine for food pairing. This wines elegance, acidity and spice notes complement grilled or roasted dishes, such as herb-crusted lamb, roasted chicken or grilled pork loin. The wines earthiness even complements vegetarian dishes, such as mushroom risotto, ratatouille or roasted root vegetables.

COMMENTARY The 2017 Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon is bright, elegant, and bursting with lively fruit. TASTING NOTES: This wine comes to the fore with persistent aromas and flavors of loganberries, red currants, and shadings of oak. Pair it with grilled lamb chops topped with fresh mint leaves.
