Jordan, a leader in California Cabernet, continues to do what it does best — making graceful and elegant Cabernet Sauvignon. As usual, their 2017 is fits that mold. Not a bombastic wine, this mid-weight beauty delivers a wonderful combination of red fruit notes and spice. Balanced and suave, it’s a delight to drink now. But, my experience with their Cabernet is that it develops beautifully with decades of bottle age, so there’s no rush if you buy this one by the case.
