Jax 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Calistoga

93 points Wine Enthusiast
Outer quote mark Bursting in dark, inky black fruit and jammy blueberry, this wine is concentrated yet bright, with a freshness that contrasts and lifts its more powerful tendencies. Succulent and supple on the palate, it finishes in black pepper, leather and cigar. (VB) Inner quote mark (7/2022)

Outer quote mark Aromas of blackberries, blueberries, dark cherries, dried thyme and baking spices. It’s full-bodied with fine tannins and lively acidity. Creamy, with a flavorful, fresh finish. Inner quote mark (10/2021)

Outer quote mark The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is composed of 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, it delivers pronounced blackcurrant jelly, stewed plums and cedar scents with wafts of cloves and black olives. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is packed with lively, crunchy black fruits, framed with approachable, grainy tannins and finishing savory. (LPB) Inner quote mark (10/2021)

Outer quote mark The value-priced (by Napa standards) 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Jax Estate sports a deep purple hue to go with a pretty, perfumed bouquet of pure cassis, ripe cherries, minty herbs, and chocolate. I like its freshness, it's medium to full-bodied, has notable purity, and is just a charming, delicious Cabernet to enjoy over the coming 5-7 years or so. Inner quote mark (3/2022)
