Jax Vineyards Y3 Taureau Red (2020)

The name "Taureau" was the name of the Jackson family’s prized bull, legendary for his feisty, high-kicking and vibrant personality. When perfecting this wine at their blending session, the JAX team concurred that the complex personality of their infamous bull reflected the complex structure and elements of this indulgent red blend and what a perfect tribute to their family ranching legend. Reflecting the dominating character of Taureau, this wine boasts incredible purple fruit colors, flavors of blackberry, black cherry and red on the palate, and all supported by polished tannins.

Blend: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc

Notes of ripe plums and blueberries with grilled herbs, blue flowers, ground spices and mint leaves. Full and creamy with ripe and juicy dark berry fruit and velvety, fine-grained tannins. Crunchy, blue-fruited finish. Drink or hold.
