Kendall-Jackson Jackson Estate Hawkeye Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 Review
Kendall Jackson is a major part of the Sonoma wine culture. Since the early 80s, they have been a force in Chardonnay production. Not only did they win awards, but they also had bottles in the White House cellar during the Reagan era. Being such a presence in wine country, it’s only natural that they would expand beyond their signature wine and apply their skills beyond Chardonnay. This mountain-fruit Cab is a great example of that. This wine has a good fruit depth that will perk up your senses. The tannins are not intrusive but present while the active acidity gives the deep fruit core some verve. It’s a great holiday wine.
