Three Finger Jack 2016 East Side Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon, Lodi
It was almost 100 years ago that Gaspare Indelicato, the founder of Delicato Family Wines, planted his first vines in Lodi’s east side; today, this wine represents the area’s rugged terrain. Three Finger Jack was a legendary outlaw who roamed the nearby Sierra Foothills during the Gold Rush. Packaged in an unusual, jug-style 750-mL bottle reminiscent of days gone by, this dynamic wine fits the personality of its namesake rogue. Aromas of brush and dark berries lead to a fleshy, full-bodied red with exacting acidity that keeps the fruit bold and fresh. Slick coffee-brandy notes finish with a streak of pepper. 91
