Revist This Cabernet

Hello Wine Friends!

It has been a while since I have had this wine... the J Lohr Cabernet Seven Oaks from Paso Robles, and shame on me! This wine is a great value with typical characteristics from wines of this region in California. This wine is dense purple red color with aromas of black cherry, black currant and plum fruit, complemented by vanilla, and just a touch of toasty notes. This comes from the time spent in the barrel. This wine is ready to drink now but I would say it is cellar-worthy for an additional 5 years. Jeff Meier is the winemaker and I would like to tip my hat to another nice wine from him and his team!

Cheers!

J
