Lokoya
”It will be hard to eclipse the quality of this quartet of 100% Cabernet Sauvignons from the Jackson Family boutique winery of Lokoya.”
-Wine Advocate
Since its founding by Jess Jackson of Jackson Family Wineries in 1995 Lokoya has been producing distinctly renowned Cabernet Sauvignons from four of Napa’s most famed mountain appellations: Mount Veeder, Howell Mountain, Spring Mountain and Diamond Mountain. The combination of these high elevation sites with the small, thick-skinned berries requires precise management and advanced winemaking skills to create the acclaimed wines that make up Lokoya.
With its production of about 2,400 cases annually coming from the mountain vineyards known for their sparse soils, high elevations, good drainage and cool climates, Lokoya wines are highly sought out by collectors around the world, Lokoya wines can be enjoyed for years to come.
Tasting Notes
- WA99
- From a high-elevation vineyard that was replanted in 2006, the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain reveals an opaque purple color as well as notes of mulberries, graphite, blackberries and a hint of charcoal. This dramatic, ostentatious 2012 is in keeping with the stylistic characteristics of this vintage. Multidimensional, stunningly pure and rich, it is a beauty that flirts with perfection. Drink now-2032.
- WS92
- A bold, sturdy, muscular style, with a firm core of tannin-laced red and dark berry, licorice, charry, cedary oak and graphite flavors. The tannins clamp down and cling on the finish, making this a good candidate for cellaring. Best from 2017 through 2030
