Jordan Vineyard & Winery presents this vintage as the definition of Jordan style artfully crafted, beautifully balanced. For those who have always appreciated the finesse of Jordan's Estate Bottled Cabernet Sauvignon, the 1989 vintage is the epitome of that classic expression. The wine's lovely qualities are testimony to the exceptional fruit from Jordan's estate vineyards in Alexander Valley and the winemaker's thoughtful shaping of the 1989 harvest. Delicate fragrances of cassis and berry join spicy scents of black pepper, cardamom and clove. The flavors reflect the aromatic structure with abundant fruit and soft tannins. Enhanced by malolactic fermentation, one year of aging in French and American oak and two years of bottle aging, this Bordeaux style wine will offer pleasure to any wine enthusiast and rewards to those who cellar.
