Country: US / Hilltop Vineyard
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: J. Lohr / Paso Robles
More like the 2000 than the richer ’97 or ’99, J. Lohr’s 2005 Hilltop Cab is very fruity, but a little too soft. The cherry, currant, chocolate, anise and spicy plum flavors have a melted quality. Drink soon.
