WINE REGION:

Outline of Paso Robles

Paso Robles

California's fastest-growing wine region is quickly gaining an international reputation for its innovative and boundary-breaking wines. Located halfway between LA and San Francisco, the Paso Robles AVA in San Luis Obispo County has two main zones. The eastern side has a hot and sunny climate with deep, rich soils producing plush, fruity wines with sweet ripe flavors. To the west, the cooling influence of the Pacific brings a zingy backbone to rich Zinfandel and Rhône favorites like Syrah and Viognier. Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Nebbiolo are also favorites of Paso Robles grape growers and wine drinkers.

TASTING NOTES:

Graphite

Mineral

Blackcurrant

The 2017 J. Lohr Hilltop Cabernet Sauvignon shows splendid ripe fruit, cocoa powder, and graphite on the nose. The palate comes across dense chalky, and soft, with layers of blackcurrant, mineral, and notes of toasted pastry.

ABOUT THE BRAND:

large bunches of red grapes on the vine

J. Lohr

In the late 1960s, Jerry Lohr began an extensive investigation of California grape growing regions — searching for the ideal location for his first vineyard. Jerry was raised on a South Dakota farm; his agricultural roots armed him with an innate sense for the relationship between climate, soil, and location. His research and instincts led him to the Central Coast, an area just beginning to explore its potential for winegrowing. Even after almost fifty years of winegrowing and celebrating eighty years on the planet, Jerry Lohr isn't slowing down and continues to release delicious wines.
