- Description
- Jefferson's Reserve finished in French oak casks previously holding Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa's Chappellet Winery, with a full year of wine cask exposure at 45.1% ABV. The cabernet finish imparts distinctive tannic grip, dark berry fruit, and subtle herbaceous notes atop the bourbon's caramel and oak foundation. The wine cask influence is assertive without overwhelming the underlying bourbon character. A bold choice for bourbon drinkers seeking wine cask experimentation and those interested in American whiskey's overlap with fine wine aging.
