WINEMAKER NOTES
In the world of fine wines, there are moments when a vintage transcends expectations, capturing the essence of its terroir and the passion of its creators. The Jordan 2019 Cabernet is such a creation, a symphony of flavors orchestrated by the skilled hands of Maggie Kruse, who guided this exceptional vintage from vine to bottle.
Kruse's inaugural vintage as head winemaker, the 2019 harvest was nothing short of magical. Mother Nature herself seemed to be a conductor, bringing forth a harmonious blend of elements. A rainy spring and a moderate summer bestowed upon us the gift of structure, concentration, and elegance. Awaiting your senses is a wine where the tannins have matured to seamless perfection during two years of patient aging in the bottle.
Uncorking a bottle of Jordan 2019 Cabernet, you'll be greeted by an olfactory overture, where intense aromas of ripe black cherry, graphite, and blackberry dance in harmony with a delicate violet floral note. The palate is a stage of impeccable balance, where blueberries, cassis, and boysenberry come alive, beautifully interwoven with silky tannins that have been nurtured in the embrace of French oak barrels. The dark fruit flavors and a subtle underpinning of acidity continue to evolve gracefully in your glass, leaving an enduring memory on your palate. Decant this masterpiece for 30 minutes, or better yet, cellar it for an exquisite evolution that will continue until 2039.
The soul of this wine lies in its origin. Harvested from more than 50 vineyard blocks of Jordan Estate and lovingly nurtured by 14 family growers, the fruit tells a story of meticulous craftsmanship. The winemaking process was equally enchanting, with individual lots meticulously separated by vineyard, extended macerations, and a thoughtful barrel selection from four French coopers. The final blend, the result of tireless dedication and blind tastings, embodies the essence of a remarkable vintage.
This wine, a masterful blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 8% Petit Verdot, and 2% Malbec, is a testament to the rich soil of the Alexander Valley, complemented by vineyards from Mendocino County and Dry Creek Valley. With a gentle touch and a keen eye for detail, it boasts a refined profile: alcohol at 13.6%, a T.A. of 0.63 g/100mL, and a pH of 3.55, all fine-tuned by a symphony of nature and human artistry.
In the final act, the Jordan 2019 Cabernet was meticulously egg-white fined and filtered, then lovingly bottled between June 18 and August 6, 2021. It is now poised to grace your table, a testament to a year that will etch itself into the annals of winemaking history. Experience the elegance, the balance, and the future potential of the Jordan 2019 Cabernet. This is a vintage that demands your attention, an investment in the art of fine wine that will reward your patience as it matures gracefully in your cellar.
