Jack London Wild Ferment Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Our winemakers fermented this wine with only the yeasts that are naturally present on the grape skins and did not add commercial yeast. The yeast of the native terroir creates a wine with impressive structure and complexity that truly reflects the unique character of the vineyard.

WINEMAKERS NOTES

The 2021 vintage featured a continuation of low precipitation which contributed to medium to low yields resulting in wines of great concentration and structure. Average and ideal temperatures dominated the Russian River Valley that summer, leading to slow ripening and intensely flavored grapes. The wine was aged for 22 months in 35% new oak barrels.
