The renaissance at Freemark Abbey continues under the Jackson Family Wines banner, and in 2018, even the fruit cooperated. Winemakers Kristy Melton and Ted Edwards are behind his classic rendition of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Fragrant, mouthfilling, and awash in perfectly ripe fruit doused with cigar, cedar, and baking spices that linger forever on the palate. The tannins are dense but supple, providing just the proper structure for a wine you can drink now if you must. That said, it’s going nowhere for the next 20 years. What is more a reserve style red, 2018 mixes 87% cabernet sauvignon, 14% merlot, 6% petit verdot, 2% malbec, and 1% cabernet franc. The fruit comes from all over the Napa Valley, including the east and west valley floor and mountain sites. Primary vineyards include Keyes on Howell Mountain, Stagecoach Vineyard on Atlas Peak, and JFW Oakville Vineyard, with a smattering of cabs from Oakville, Calistoga and Rutherford. It all aged 27 months in French oak barrels, of which 40% were new.

An opaque and inky black into purple, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Speciale is classic and plush, with layers of fresh leather, blackcurrant, pine, and forest floor.

This is prime for cellaring for several years and drinking over the following 2-3 decades

From this high elevation vineyard at 2400 feet above sea level, the 2014 Cabernet
Sauvignon Christopher's Vineyard pours a deep inky red. A robust and ripe profile with

This library release is going to be something to get excited out and snap up next year when it’s re-released. 400 cases will be released on the market in 2024.

A ripe golden hue, the 2021 Chardonnay Far Coast Vineyard offers more broadness right
away with its perfume of jasmine, ripe tropical fruit, toasted spice, and apricot. Fullbodied, with a soft, viscous texture and notes of honeyed citrus and ripe salted pineapple, it’s long on the finish, with a sunny, opulent feel. It’s approachable now or over the next 6-8 years.

Deep purple with a tinge of ruby, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Crown Vineyard has a more floral and red-fruited tone and is lifted with wet stone, pure cassis, and rosy floral perfume.
