Bottle of J. Lohr Pure Paso Proprietary Red Wine 2021.

J. Lohr Pure Paso Proprietary Red Wine 2021
15% alcohol, cork, Paso Robles.

Made with 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Petite Sirah, 2% Malbec, 2% Saint Macaire, 1% Merlot.

Excellent flavour and tannin, and a well-sustained finish. Blueberries and blackberries, red licorice, spice, and a wave of minty, dried, fragrant herbs. There’s a seriousness to this wine. A good deal of tannin. A warmth and an impact.
