J Lohr 7 Oaks Cabernet Sauvignon 2009
Three decades ago, the California Central Coast had yet to emerge as one of North America's world-class winegrowing regions. With little history or viticultural precedent, planting on the Central Coast was a gamble, Jerry Lohr was among the first to realize the vast, untapped potential of this now-acclaimed region.
A particularly dense vintage, this wine is red-purple in color with a bright hue. Aromas of black currant, plum and black cherry are lifted by a bouquet of vanilla, toasted pastry and spice from a year of barrel aging. The palate is bursting with primary fruit and a broad, rich tannin structure.

This is the best cab on the market. I am from California, just 20 minutes outside of the region where they grow these grapes. This wine is excellent right out of the bottle, with a great, full body and dark fruit and leathery flavors.
