Every vintage of Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted with a focus on striking a perfect balance between beautiful fruit, silky tannins and a lingering finish. It is this delicate balance—all done by taste—that allows for the gradual, graceful evolution of Jordan's Cabernet Sauvignon in bottle. Renowned for our consistency of quality vintage after vintage, Jordan has remained one of the most popular wines on the best U.S. restaurant wine lists for decades.
This Estate Grown Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied wine that is nicely layered with a velvet structure, round tannins, dense texture, and a lingering finish. The aroma is concentrated with ripe raspberry, black cherry and toasted oak followed by vanilla, mocha and hints of spice. The flavors are rich with blackberry, currant, dark chocolate and a savory component of roasted coffee and smoked meat.
This winery gained world recognition after the now famous blind tasting in Paris in when their 1973 SLV Cabernet was judged best above four First-Growth Bordeaux entries. Their Artemis Cabernet Sauvignon is decadent, with aromas of bing cherries and truffle. On the palate the wine is dense with truckloads of mocha on the midpalate.
Well-proportioned even as the tannins gain the upper hand on the finish, with herb, dill and dried berry notes at the core, ending simple. Drink now through 2020. 15,430 cases made. –JL The Wine Spectator
Showcases the best of what McLaren Vale Cabernet has to offer; dark fruits of blackberry and blackcurrant burst upon first smelling this decadent wine. Expressive layers of violet, rich vanilla cream and mocha coat your palate giving way to deep chocolate and subtle hints of spice. Underlining tannins reinforce these complex and full flavors that continue to develop and linger in your mouth for ages.
Smooth, rich and creamy, with firm yet elegant dried currant and blackberry flavors that are focused and lively, gaining complexity and depth on the long finish.
