It makes a small selection of premium varietal wines from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. La Jota focuses on small-production varietal wines with premium prices. Included is the limited-edition, single-vineyard W.S. Keyes Merlot. Keyes was a wine pioneer of Howell Mountain, and is credited with planting the regions' first grape vines in the late 19th Century. The La Jota vineyard and winery were originally founded in 1898 by Frederick Hess. The property is named for the 1843 Rancho La Jota Mexican land grant, of which it was a part. Hess' wines gained international recognition and won notable acclaim in the early 20th Century, earning medals at the Paris Exposition and the World's Fair. After falling into disuse during Prohibition, the winery and some of the La Jota land were bought by Bill Smith in 1975, who established the modern La Jota Vineyard Company. In 2003, Smith sold La Jota to Jackson Family Wines, who are best known for the Kendall-Jackson brand. The estate consists of 11 hectares (28 acres) of vineyards planted predominantly to Cabernet Sauvignon, with smaller plantings of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. La Jota is divided into three separate vineyards – Hill Vineyard and Winery Block Vineyard were both planted in the 1970s, while the largest, Meadow Vineyard, was first planted in the 1990s.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-09-13T12:47:01-04:00","created_at":"2023-09-11T12:27:15-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","NK0709","Other_Wine","Producer_La Jota Vineyards","Region_Howell Mountain","Source_VendorEmail0823","Type_Red Wine","varietal_cabernet sauvignon"],"price":37300,"price_min":37300,"price_max":37300,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43643741274250,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1988 | La Jota Vineyards | Cabernet Sauvignon","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":37300,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_070ba6fa-8e6b-4bf7-a301-dd603b9337de.jpg?v=1694449668"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_070ba6fa-8e6b-4bf7-a301-dd603b9337de.jpg?v=1694449668","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1988 | La Jota Vineyards | Cabernet Sauvignon at CaskCartel.com","id":25099092394122,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.298,"height":600,"width":179,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_070ba6fa-8e6b-4bf7-a301-dd603b9337de.jpg?v=1694449668"},"aspect_ratio":0.298,"height":600,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_070ba6fa-8e6b-4bf7-a301-dd603b9337de.jpg?v=1694449668","width":179}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 1988 | La Jota Vineyards | Cabernet Sauvignon\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRipe, chunky and well balanced, with smoke, earth, currant, mineral, herb and tobacco notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e La Jota Vineyards\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1988\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e United States, Howell Mountain\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRipe, chunky and well balanced, with smoke, earth, currant, mineral, herb and tobacco notes.
