SPECIFICATIONS
2016 Y 3 CABERNET SAUVIGNON
Dark aromas of ripe blackberries, currants and a hint of spice.
This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon coats the palate with dense
layers of black cherry, cocoa nib, forest floor and soft hints of
cedar. Full-bodied and well proportioned, this wine carries
through to a vibrant and lively finish.
THE CRAFT
The focus of our JAX Y3 wines, sourced from AVAs (spanning
Napa, Sonoma and North Coast) is to craft wines that express
their unique terroir. The JAX Y3 Cabernet Sauvignon is
sourced from the rocky, high elevation, “Red Hills” AVA region
in Lake County. The coarse, red soil is comprised of large
obsidian rocks (due to its proximity to Mount Konocti) resulting
in excellent drainage and low yields. We specifically selected
the grape lots from various vineyard blocks to add layers of
complexity. Lake County’s warm temperatures and volcanic
soils contributed layers of ripe flavors, creating a deep, rich
palate. This wine was aged for 10 months in 30% new French
Oak Barrels.
