St. Helena

Located in the heart of Napa Valley lies a 35-acre parcel of land, named after Jerry’s late wife, Carol, to whom he was wed for nearly 49 years. Here, ideal temperatures and clay loam soils provide superb conditions for growing both Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc, and mimic the great climate of Bordeaux. As a result, Carol’s Vineyard has yielded fruit of exceptional quality, character, and depth of flavor for over two and a half decades.

Grapes from our J. Lohr Carol's Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc are hand-harvested in the cool of morning, carefully crushed, and fermented primarily in stainless steel to retain the varietal's bright, crisp gooseberry and grapefruit flavors. A small portion of the fruit is fermented in new French oak barrels for added depth and complexity, to complement its classic style.

The fruit from our J. Lohr Carol's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is also hand-harvested to preserve the intense flavors and colors. Blended with Petit Verdot and aged in French oak barrels for nearly two years, this Cabernet is defined by deep black cherry and currant flavors and aromas, with a hint of licorice.
