Dense and tannic, with a lockdown astringency, but very finely structured and with great heart. Shows rich, complex blackberry, cherry and currant flavors. Finishes dry and refined, but will gain with time. Drink this Merlot-based Bordeaux blend now–2014. ——S.H.(10/1/2009)—— 90

Our favorite of the three J. Lohr cuvees is this one, based on Cabernet Franc. The variety’s floral, herbal notes mark the aromas, then give way on the palate to broad, mouthfilling flavors of brandied cherries and baking spices. It’s lush and soft in the style of the winery and the region, but retains a slightly greater sense of focus than the Cuvee Pom. Drink now–2012.——W.E.(10/1/2007)—— 91

Opens with a blast of caramelized oak, and it’s hard to get anything else, but in the mouth, the wine is softly creamy, with delicious cherry, chocolate, anise and Asian spice flavors that finish dry and long. It’s a sensuous wine that’s at its best now. ——S.H.(9/1/2006)—— 89

This is the Pomerol-inspired member of the Cuvee series trio, with lush coffee and black cherry flavors surrounding a core of bright acidity. Finishes long, with a mouthwatering quality all of our tasters admired.——W.E.(12/1/2003)—— 90
