2018 JAX Y3CABERNET SAUVIGNON

Dark aromas of ripe blackberries, currants and a hint of

spice. This Cabernet Sauvignon coats the palate with

dense layers of black cherry, cocoa nib, forest floor and

soft hints of cedar. Full-bodied with broad structure,

this wine carries through with vibrant acidity and

delicate tannins.
