94 POINTS — Jeb Dunnuck
“It offers a super-rich bouquet of blueberries, plums, Asian spices, sagebrush, and lavender. With full-bodied richness and depth as well as sweet tannins and rocking levels of purity, it’s easily the standout in the lineup.”
94 POINTS — Wine Enthusiast
“This big, bold wine tastes of blackberry pie dusted in clove and nutmeg, giving it a lush and plush feel. Thick and densely structured, it offers elongated tannins and a memorable, spicy finish.”
93 POINTS — Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate
“The deep garnet-purple colored wine offers up cassis, baked blackberries and blueberry compote with lifted notes of spice box and licorice plus a touch of sage. Full-bodied, rich, firm and grainy, the palate has loads of freshness and an aniseed finish.”
Winemaker's Notes
Sourced from the prized block on the JAX Estate, the Block 3 Cabernet reflects the premium fruit of the vineyard. After noticing such remarkable fruit from this block, we decided to isolate this gem and bottle merely 5 barrels. This project is an intense expression of the red rock, alluvial soil at the base of Mt. Saint Helena. The lush fruit driven profile of the 337 clone produces a wine that is well structured with lovely herbal notes on the nose.
