Cabernet Sauvignon thrives at Jack London Vineyards due to the optimum balance of warm morning sun and gentle cooling afternoon breezes, in combination with well-drained, deep, rich soils. Fruit aromas of cherry, blackberry and plum combine with complex notes of mint and cigar box. Rich, full-bodied mouthfeel with firm tannins and an excellent finish.
