Jefferson’s Pritchard Hill® Cabernet Cask Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey S1B7

Finish fully mature bourbon for 12-15 months in a freshly dumped French oak barrel which aged Chappellet’s Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon for 2 years. This picks up the blackberry and chocolate that the Pritchard Hill Cabernet is so famous for.

Brian Schmidt, Topflight Panel Member:

You can quite literally see the impact from the Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon Cask on this unique pour from Jefferson’s Reserve. With that deep red hue comes a gorgeous aroma of black cherry, chocolate with an earthiness that’s hard to place. On the palate this pour dances around the cabernet with familiar wine elements. Tannic, but not too drying. Fruit forward, but not too sweet. I get distinct stone fruit and oak notes on the finish in a very pleasant bourbon. This is a glass is one that gets more complex the longer it sits and maintains its delightful aroma long after it’s gone.
