Jordan, an iconic Sonoma producer, continues its track record of producing polished Cabernet Sauvignons. Their 2020 combines an alluring ripe mixture of plumy and savory notes, all atop a plush base. As usual, Jordan has created a wine with depth and power, while avoiding the temptation to go overboard. No monster Cab here. Don’t be fooled by the approachability of Jordan’s 2020 Cabernet. My experience with their Cabernets is that they develop beautifully with decades of bottle age, which creates a dilemma—drink now or cellar it? The solution: Buy enough for both.
