Description
In 1976, Kenwood Vineyards was granted the exclusive rights to produce wines from writer Jack London's historic vineyard in Glen Ellen. The wolf head on the label was London's bookplate logo for such novels as The Call of the Wild. From the superb 2014 growing season, look for this 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc and 8% Merlot blend to deliver dense dark cherry fruit, herbs and spice. It will be letter-perfect with your favourite cut of steak.

Tasting Notes
Concentrated and slightly dense, this comes from a lovely property still farmed independently by one of the original founders of Kenwood Vineyards. A deft core of mint and herbal spice makes the wine intriguing, surrounded by juicier black cherry and berry. Soft and supple, it's fairly priced. Score - 89.
