J. Lohr Signature Cabernet Sauvignon Paso Robles 2021 750ml

Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles, California

Notes from the Winemaker

J. Lohr Estates Seven Oaks Cabernet Sauvignon is dense and dark at the core. Ripe fruit aromas of black cherry and currant are accented by notes of toasted pastry, hazelnut, and vanilla from the winery's extensive barrel aging program. Big, juicy red-fruit flavors infuse the palate while softly textured tannins lead to a long, gratifying finish.

Blend: 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petite Sirah, 4% Petit Verdot, 3% Merlot, 2% Malbec

Reviews and Accolades

96 Points/Wine Enthusiast
This top-shelf bottling for this veteran producer always impresses. Dark in the glass, this vintage begins with aromas of cassis and violet on the lush, intensely ripe nose that achieves remarkable harmony. The mouthcoating palate is wrapped in thick tannins that frame the dark-chocolate fudge, chai spice and coffee-cream flavors. Drink now–2037.

91 Points/James Suckling
Blackberries, cassis, currants and oak spices on the nose. It's full-bodied with plush tannins. Fruity, with a fine texture and a rich array of berries and sweet spices in the finish.

91 Points/Tasting Panel
This blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon with small amounts of Petite Sirah, Petit Verdot, Merlot, and Malbec is a muscular yet elegantly textured red with teeth-gripping, chalky tannins. The concentrated ripeness that's a hallmark of Paso lends extra character to flavors of hazelnut, blackberry, vanilla, and roasted coffee, while the woodsy, spiced finish is soothing.
