J. Lohr Estates Seven Oaks Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

The 2022 J. Lohr "Seven Oaks" Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic and fruit-forward icon that has defined the Paso Robles style for over thirty vintages. Born from a dry and warm growing season, it presents an exceptionally dark color and a layered bouquet of black cherry, currant, and plum, accented by an authentic barrel-aged bouquet of toasted pastry, hazelnut, and dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and smooth, featuring juicy red-fruit flavors supported by velvety, softly textured tannins. Matured for 12 months in 60-gallon American oak barrels (18% new wood), it balances its concentrated ripeness with a long, gratifying finish. It is widely recognized as a "best buy" for its consistency and is ideal for pairing with grilled ribeye steak or hearty pasta dishes.

Currants, sage, roasted plums and cloves on the nose of this rich and spicy red. It’s full-bodied, plush and toasty, with ripe tannins.
