Grand Reserve Jackson Estates Grown

2008 Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon

The Kendall-Jackson Grand Reserve Jackson Estates Grown Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2008 vintage showcases a beautifully rich red color that captivates the eye. This Sonoma County gem delivers a full-bodied experience, offering a plush mouthfeel that envelops the palate. The acidity is bright and lively, enhancing the wine's structure while providing a refreshing balance. Fruit intensity is pronounced, with luscious notes of blackcurrant and dark cherry, complemented by subtler hints of spice and oak from its careful aging. The tannins are notably firm but well-integrated, adding both depth and elegance to the overall profile. This Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted to be dry, allowing the rich flavors to shine and making it an excellent companion for hearty dishes or a delightful indulgence on its own.

Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
