Currants, blackberries, pencil shavings, and clove meet ripe strawberry, chocolate and fresh minerality.

Jada's founder and owner, Jack Messina, was a cardiovascular \u0026amp; thoracic surgeon for over 40 years so when Josh and the winemaker at the time were going back and forth about a new wine to showcase their Cab \u0026amp; Syrah programs, Josh decided on this tribute to his father to represent the many years of love and devotion Jack has given to ountless patients and families throughout his long career.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn 2017 they combined multiple small-lot fermentations of Syrah and a co-fermentation of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. The Cabernet Sauvignon is from clone 337 only, chosen to compliment the Syrah in this blend with dark and aromatic fruit, higher acidity, and deep color. The Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot co-fermentation spent 9 days in tank before pressing to avoid excessive tannin, whereas the Syrah fermentations averaged 16 days. All varieties were triple sorted with multiple green passes in the vineyard, cluster sorting, and a final berry sorting before gravity-filling each tank. Aging for 18 months in 225L Barrels (54% New French Oak, 36% Once Used French Oak).\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Review:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003e\"The 2017 Sawbones checks in as 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Syrah, and 14% Petit Verdot that spent 18 months in 54% new French oak.
