OVERVIEW

3. On Jerry Lohr’s 80th birthday J
On Jerry Lohr’s 80th birthday J. Lohr launched the ultimate, limited release red wine in its portfolio, the 2013 J. Lohr Signature Cabernet Sauvignon.  A market success, the 2013 release of the wine represented a significant milestone in both Jerry’s family as well as the extended J. Lohr family of employees, trade and industry relationships.
Released on November 1, 2017, the J. Lohr Signature Cabernet represents the culmination of our Cabernet program in Paso Robles, and the realization of Jerry’s long-standing vision to release a Cabernet Sauvignon that could compete with the finest Cabernets of Paso Robles, Napa Valley, and other celebrated, global winegrowing regions.
