2016 Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley

2016 was an incredible year for Cabernet Sauvignon. Right off the vine, the fruit aromas were so bright, beautiful and rich, and the delicious fruit flavors were maintained all the way to the bottle. “We all have vivid memories from the 2016 vintage; it’s hard not to salivate when thinking about that harvest. This is a wine that tastes great now, but also has structure to make it a phenomenal library vintage.” —Maggie Kruse, winemaker Aromas of black cherries wrapped in a spice box of nutmeg, clove and allspice jump from the glass. The palate is filled with flavors of black currants and plum that lead seamlessly to silky tannins and black cherry notes. Blackberry, Mission fig and black cherry notes linger on the finish. The combination of elegance and intensity make it a fitting vintage to celebrate 40 years of Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon. Enjoy now after decanting for 30 minutes or cellar through 2035.
