Product Description
The J. Lohr Hilltop Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 exemplifies the high-elevation pedigree of Pasa Robles, continuing Jerry Lohr’s legacy of viticultural excellence. This vintage is a critical standout, earning 94 points from Wine Enthusiast for its "opulent structure" and "always reliable" character. Meticulously aged for sixteen months in French oak, the winemaking process captures a dense core of fruit while refining the fine-grained tannins that define this estate's premier hilltop blocks.
This wine reveals an intense bouquet of blackberry compote, crushed violet, and black tea. Vinous describes the experience as "silky smooth," washing across the palate with a "cascade of ripe black fruits and licorice." The profile is further enriched by notes of toasted hazelnut and espresso, leading to a bright, persistent finish.
