2021 J. Lohr Estates Seven Oaks Cabernet Sauvignon
#04-2024
At the present time, Cabernet Sauvignon is the number one selling grape variety in the United States. So, whether you are serving tenderloin or spaghetti, its good to have a good "go to Cab" available. You can't go wrong with the J. Lohr Seven Oaks Cab, which year after year, is a winner! This one; like many today is a blend, with 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petite Sirah, 4% Petite Verdot, 3% Merlot, and 2 % Malbec. A true Claret, or the more correct American term, "Meritage".
This is a bold, yet supple Cab, with a big nose and a complex, and supple flavor spectrum. The concentration is blackberry and cassis, with a little black cherry, finishing with a lingering after-taste. The alcohol content is 14%. and Norm's score is 89.
The choice of foods for this wonderful Cab is varied, but it can be enjoyed in almost any setting, including, just by itself!
score: 89
price : $15 - $19
