J. Lohr Pure Paso Proprietary Red 750ml
Product Description
The J. Lohr Pure Paso Proprietary Red Wine is exactly what the name suggests: authentic Paso Robles winegrowing history captured in a bottle. J. Lohr Pure Paso artfully blends Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah â two J. Lohr benchmark varieties â into a unique proprietary red wine. The two varieties have long been intertwined in J. Lohrâs winegrowing history and, in particular, the Lohr familyâs pioneering efforts in the Paso Robles region. This Pure Paso Proprietary Red Wine highlights J. Lohrâs house-style, which is acclaimed for its dense and focused fruit signature, coupled with a soft, approachable palate. Its classic, dramatic packaging recalls Paso Roblesâ frontier ethos. It is our delicious, proprietary tribute to one of the worldâs great winegrowing regions â a special place that J. Lohr is proud to call home. Savory varietal notes of Cabernet Sauvignon are layered with the overt dark fruit character of Petite Sirah. The bouquet of cocoa powder, caramel, and anise works in harmony with the black cherry fruit signature of this wine. Bright and focused on the palate with a firm and appetizing finish.

Expert Reviews
This relatively recent proprietary red-blend creation continues to impress each vintage, showcasing Paso power with deft balance in pleasing ways. Aromas of blackberry jam, violet extract and root-beer floats proceed from the nose into a comforting palate of strawberry, cola and peppery spices. Firm, lingering tannins lead through the caramel-laced finish.
This blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon and 31% Petite Sirah with small percentages of Malbec, Saint Macaire, and Merlot aged 18 months in American and Hungarian oak. Intense aromas of blackberry liqueur lead to concentrated flavors of dark chocolate- covered cherry. A hint of tension and chalky tannins keep the palate alert and inspired before the lengthy finish.
