Crafted as a nod to the era of Prohibition, the 1924 Double Black Bourbon Barrel Aged Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold testament to rebellious winemaking. Sourced from the sun-drenched vineyards of Lodi, California, where warm daytime temperatures are tempered by cool breezes from the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, this wine benefits from ideal ripening conditions that yield highly concentrated fruit. The defining characteristic of this cuvée is its finishing process: a portion of the wine is aged in charred American oak barrels previously used for aging premium Kentucky bourbon. This technique infuses the deep, dark Cabernet fruit with rich layers of toasted oak, sweet vanilla, caramel, and a hint of warm spice, creating a robust and velvety profile that pays homage to the clandestine spirits of the Roaring Twenties.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Inspired by the year the Indelicato family planted their first California vineyards during the Prohibition era, the 1924 wine brand is a tribute to bold, rebellious winemaking. Produced by Delicato Family Wines near the historic Lodi winegrowing region, the brand focuses on crafting rich, full-bodied red wines that capture the spirit of the Roaring Twenties. Utilizing select fruit from Lodi's sun-drenched vineyards, 1924 is highly regarded for its intense, deeply colored expressions, most notably its Double Black Bourbon Barrel Aged Cabernet Sauvignon, which undergoes aging in charred oak barrels to impart distinct notes of caramel, toasted oak, and spice.
