FEATURES
🏰 The 2018 Colgin Jubilation is a remarkable Napa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend, emerging from a 'super moderate growing season' on Pritchard Hill. The vintage was characterized by classic warm days and cool nights, with a well-managed crop and timely harvests of Merlot, Syrah, and Cabernet in September and October. Critics have noted that Colgin once again 'knocks it out of the park' with this 2018 release. This wine, formerly Merlot-based, is now a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant Bordeaux blend, showcasing the winery's commitment to excellence.
On the nose, it offers dark fruit, black and blue notes, with a subtle hint of oak, evolving into lighter red flowers and bright cranberries. The palate is rich with blueberries and dark cherries, supported by classic Colgin fine-grained tannins. Despite its 15% ABV, the wine carries its power gracefully, delivering a medium-plus finish and excellent minerality. Reviewers describe it as full, balanced, and a fantastic experience, with beautifully concentrated red and black fruits, berries, plums, mint, leather, chocolate, and crushed stones, culminating in a great long finish. It also presents graphite, red fruit, orange peel, and violet aromas, with a medium body, firm tannins, and a crunchy, bright finish. 【 Colgin knocks it out of the park again in 2018 】
