Wine Description

Wines in Package One:

2018 J. Lohr Pure Paso (TM) Proprietary Red Wine
93 points, Editor's Choice, Wine Enthusiast, January 2020

Savory varietal notes of Cabernet Sauvignon are layered with the dark fruit and spice character of Petite Sirah. The bouquet of cocoa powder, caramel, and anise works in harmony with the black cherry fruit signature of this wine. Bright and focused on the palate with a firm and appetizing finish.

2018 J. Lohr Arroyo Vista Chardonnay
91 points, Editor's Choice, Wine Enthusiast, November 2020
90 points, Years Best CA Chardonnay, Wine & Spririts, October, 2020

The rich palate texture is achieved through the use of classic Burgundian techniques, such as primary and malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels and weekly stirring of the lees. The palate is balanced by fresh flavors of apple, pear, and Meyer lemon cream with a long, sweet oak finish.

2019 J. Lohr Estates Wildflower Valdiguie

We achieved a higher degree of ripeness in 2019 with Valdiguié, which resulted in exceptional flavor development for the J. Lohr Estates Wildflower. Bright and youthful red hues and profuse brambly fruit aromas are accented by black pepper notes. On the palate, a zesty attack of pomegranate and blueberry leaves crisp, fresh fruit and a touch
of spice on the finish.

Wines in Package Two:

2018 J. Lohr Hilltop Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2018 J. Lohr Hilltop Cabernet Sauvignon is effusive with fresh varietal aromas of black cherry and hints of toasted pastry and baking spice on
the nose. Dense and soft on the palate. Elegant layers of black and
red currants leave a bright finish.

2019 J. Lohr Riverstone Chardonnay
This wine has earned the “Certified California Sustainable Winegrowing” seal from the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance.

The 2019 J. Lohr Riverstone Chardonnay exhibits youthful hues of light straw. The enticing aromas are reminiscent of ripe orange, fresh nectarine, and hazelnut, which are complemented by the palate flavors of apricot,
ripe peach, and honey. The rich texture and balance on the palate
from aging sur lie gives way to flavors of vanilla, citrus cream, and
a hint of oak on the long finish.

2019 J. Lohr Estates Bay Mist White Riesling

The 2019 J. Lohr Estates Bay Mist White Riesling is pale straw in color, offering aromas of honeysuckle, ripe pear, Meyer lemon, and lychee. These delicious aromas are complemented on the palate by cool climate minerality, rich texture, and a spritz of natural carbonation on the finish.
