Kenwood is more or less a cabernet sauvignon house, though it excels throughout the lineup. The Jack London Ranch cabernet is one of Kenwood’s most consistently outstanding wines and the 2013 is another in a distinguished chain. It offers impressive richness and weight, layers of dark fruits and an unmistakable note of eucalyptus as a signature high note. On the palate the Jack London delivers that rare combination of elegance and power, with firm but nicely integrated tannins and a long, spicy finish.
