Tasting Notes

Appearance: Deep garnet with slight brickish hues at the rim, indicative of its age and graceful maturity.

Nose: The bouquet opens with aromas of black cherry, cassis, and blackberry, interwoven with notes of cedar, tobacco, and leather. Subtle hints of dried herbs, earth, and vanilla from the oak aging add layers of complexity. With time in the glass, secondary aromas of forest floor, mushroom, and cocoa powder emerge.

Palate: On the palate, this wine is remarkably balanced and elegant, offering a harmonious blend of dark fruit flavors such as blackberry, black currant, and plum. The tannins are velvety and well-integrated, contributing to a smooth and refined texture. Savory notes of leather, tobacco, and dried herbs mingle with touches of mocha and dark chocolate. The finish is long and lingering, with hints of spice, vanilla, and a touch of minerality.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is a 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon from Jordan's library, a chance to taste what time does to a classic, food-friendly Alexander Valley red without waiting on your own cellar. In the glass it shows deep garnet with brickish hues at the rim. The nose moves from black cherry, cassis and blackberry into cedar, tobacco and leather, and forest floor, mushroom and cocoa appear as it opens. The palate is balanced and elegant, with velvety, well-integrated tannins, plum and black currant, savory dried herbs, a touch of mocha, and a long finish of spice, vanilla and minerality. It suits the collector who wants a mature reference bottle, and the host planning a special dinner around roast beef or lamb. Jordan Vineyard & Winery, founded in 1972 and guided by second-generation vintner John Jordan, built its name on Old World-inspired elegance. We carry this release because it shows that style at graceful maturity.

Pairs well with

Braised short ribs — The wine's balance and acidity cut through the richness, while its leather, tobacco and dark fruit notes echo the deep, savory braise.
Mushroom risotto or grilled portobellos — The forest floor and mushroom aromas that develop in the glass mirror the earthy flavors of the dish.
Celebratory dinner party — A mature library Cabernet with layered cherry, cedar and cocoa gives guests something to talk about across a long, special meal.

Questions about this bottle

What does library release mean for this bottle?

A library release is a wine a winery brings out from its own older stock rather than selling it on initial release. Here that means the 2009 vintage of Jordan's Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, offered as a beautifully aged expression with the secondary complexity that time brings.

What does the 2009 Jordan Cabernet taste like?

Expect black cherry, cassis, blackberry and plum alongside cedar, tobacco, leather and dried herbs. With air, forest floor, mushroom and cocoa powder emerge. The tannins are velvety and well integrated, with touches of mocha and dark chocolate, and the finish is long, with spice, vanilla and a hint of minerality.

Should I decant it, and at what temperature should I serve it?

Yes. Decant for 30 minutes to an hour to open up the aromas and flavors, then serve at 60-65°F (16-18°C) so the full spectrum of fruit, savory and oak-derived notes can show.

Is it a good gift, and can it be cellared longer?

It is a thoughtful gift for wine collectors and a natural choice for special occasions. This 750 ml bottle at 13.5% ABV can be enjoyed now or cellared for a few more years, thanks to its graceful aging potential.
