An enticing and little-known French grape has found its perfect New World home among Monterey’s coastal lupines and poppies. Chill a red? Yes! And pair it with just about anything. Now, you’re in the know... Served slightly chilled, displays inviting fresh raspberry, cranberry, and pomegranate aromas, with a bit of black pepper and hibiscus. Flavors of brambly, bright red berry with a touch of spice, mid-palate acidity, and a juicy, mouth-watering finish.
J. Lohr Winery was founded in 1974 by Jerry Lohr, who pioneered winegrowing on California’s Central Coast, first in Monterey’s Arroyo Seco and later in Paso Robles. Today, it is one of the largest family-owned wineries in the U.S., with over 4,000 acres of vineyards and a reputation for sustainable, estate-grown wines.
