Here is the scintillating 2019 Lokoya Cabernet Sauvignon.

Lokoya

December 14, 2023

Today we share one of the giants of Napa. Truly one of the great wines of this region, Lokoya began back in 1995 by Jackson Family Wines. The winery focuses on 100% varietal Cabernet Sauvignon wines from mountain appellations. This was the vision of founder, Jess Jackson who always saw the promise for world-class mountain fruit Napa wines. Fast forward to 2013, Jackson Family Wines purchased the former Yverdon Vineyard and Winery from Terra Valentine owners Angus and Margaret Wurtele. The winery became the new location for Lokoya.

Wines are made by Chris Carpenter, one of the regions great winemakers. The 2019 Lokoya Cabernet Sauvignon (OB, 99) is a sight to be seen. Inky in the glass, this offers incredible flavor range and intensity from this great vineyard. It is also a pretty penny at $500.00 retail. Learn more about this famed wine at lokoya.com and here is my review of the incredible 2019 Lokoya Cabernet Sauvignon.

2019 Lokoya Cabernet Sauvignon- The 2019 Lokoya Cabernet Sauvignon is a total heavyhitter of a wine that is a must-taste for any serious Napa aficionado. Aged in a combination of Taransaud and Seguin-Moreau oak barrels, this gorgeous bottling from Mt. Veeder offers insanely good aromatics of iodine, dark currants, Black Forest Cake and suggestions of graphite on the nose. The palate offers a seamless texture and massive concentration. Full-bodied, yet showing a fantastic sense of freshness, this is loaded with massive dark fruits that parade with espresso grounds, creme de violette and dark chocolate shavings all in unison. While obviously big and intense, this is drinking beautifully despite its youth — and will easily be a 25-30 year wine. Drink 2024-2047- 99
