Jackson Estate, Alexander Valley (Sonoma County, California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

May 12, 2016

By Robert Whitley

One of the finest wines in the Kendall-Jackson portfolio, the Hawkeye Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is the complete cabernet, showing layers of red and black fruit, beautifully integrated tannins that lend a dynamic mouthfeel, with notes of woodsmoke and spice in the background and a touch of earthy minerality. A triumph for K-J winemaker Randy Ullom.
