Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley 2020 750ml

Jordan Winery · Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon · 2020

Jordan's 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon pairs the depth of ripe dark fruit with the freshness and acidity that define its balanced style. Black cherry, currant, and boysenberry meet delicate cedar, while blueberry, cranberry, and clove carry across a smooth, French-oak-framed palate.

Full-bodied and polished, with silky tannins and bright acidity, this Alexander Valley Cabernet is enjoyable now and has the structure to age gracefully. The winemaker recommends decanting for 60 minutes or cellaring through 2040.
