2018 Jamieson Ranch Whiplash Cabernet Sauvignon

Jamieson Ranch Vineyards in Nappa Valley, United States, is more than just a producer of great wines. Their "Light Horse" label is a metaphor for the winery's unique program of animal therapy for wine enthusiasts, war veterans and children with disabilities. So making beautiful wines and being actively involved in society go hand-in-hand

Entering through the awesome driveway of Jamieson Ranch Vineyards, one is immediately greeted by the awe-inspiring silhouette of the legendary stallion - Whiplash. His sculpture, intense with graceful movement, hints at why this noble creature captured the hearts of everyone with its beauty. Lively, daring and independent as his name, Whiplash was a rare and elegant stallion.

This Californian Cabernet Sauvignon has matured for 6 months in 30% French oak barrels and the rest in stainless steel - this keeps the wine wonderfully elegant but with the necessary finesse. In the nose, this Whiplash Cabernet Sauvignon has a delicious nose of cassis fruit and black cherries with aromas of mocha and spices.
The wine is full bodied, spicy with again the ripe cassis fruit, black cherries, mocha and spices, with a full drink and ripe tannins.

Pair this wine with a nice piece of grilled or baked meat.
