2018 Nicholson Jones Red Hen Cabernet Sauvignon

Nicholson Jones Red Hen Cabernet Sauvignon is Nicholson Jones' clearly identified Cabernet Sauvignon bottling, with the site, appellation, cuvée, and format retained in the product name wherever supplied. Nicholson Jones pairs Cal Nicholson's project vision with Julien Fayard's authority over wine quality. Its portfolio moves among vineyard-designated and regional bottlings, allowing the site, variety, and intended style to remain clear from one release to the next. Cabernet Sauvignon is naturally structured, so glass shape, serving temperature, and time after opening can materially change how its fruit, tannin, and savory detail are perceived.

For a younger bottle, begin checking it as soon as it is opened and extend air only as needed; a mature bottle usually benefits from gentler handling and less aggressive decanting. The variety and cuvée information carried in the product name provides the clearest frame for this bottle and keeps the release distinct within the producer's wider range.
