Showing an elegant structure, this historic wine is well integrated in terms of tannin and soft, supportive oak. Dried herb and clove mark the midpalate, adding seasoning and complex character to the currant core.
Tasting Notes
Aromas of black cherries wrapped in a spice box of nutmeg, clove and allspice jump from the glass. The palate is filled with flavors of black currants and plum that lead seamlessly to silky tannins and black cherry notes. Blackberry, Mission fig and black cherry notes linger on the finish. The combination of elegance and intensity make it a fitting vintage to celebrate 40 years of Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon.
The dark fruit flavors, silky palate and structure make it a lovely wine for food pairing. This wine’s elegance, acidity and spice notes complement grilled or roasted dishes, such as herb-crusted lamb, roasted chicken or grilled pork loin. The wine’s earthiness even complements vegetarian dishes, such as mushroom risotto, ratatouille or roasted root vegetables.
Enjoy now after decanting for 30 minutes or cellar through 2035.

Winery Notes
'In a world where successful wineries and wine brands are increasingly owned by corporations, Jordan Winery is proud to be independently owned by John Jordan, whose parents founded the winery in 1972.
Jordan wines are made in a French style that allows them to pair well with a broad range of foods. Our winemaking emphasizes the wine’s fruit and acidity rather than its alcohol and tannin. Acidity plays two roles central to food pairing: cleansing of the palate and providing balance. Our wines are intended to complement the meal, not overpower it.
As one of California’s iconic producers of classic cabernet sauvignon, we believe our success should be used for a greater good beyond the glass. Since 2012, a large portion of the profits from Jordan Winery funds the John Jordan Foundation, which provides financial and technical support to numerous nonprofits.'
