This wine aged partly in a blend of French and American oak and partly in stainless-steel tanks. The result is round and seamless, with defined structure and suede tannins that guide the liquid along a sensual path. Following rich, sumptuous notes of coffee bean, licorice, blackberry, and slate, spiced cedar marks the lengthy, elegant finish

Roaming the Sierra Foothills of California Gold Country, situated 75 miles east of San Francisco, a notorious desperado by the name of Three Finger Jack searched the rugged wilderness relentlessly for riches. Nobody knows how he lost his fingers, or how he died, but his legend lives on today in the Lodi region of California, through Three Finger Jack wines. The gold may be gone but the wine, grown in the land where Jack once roved, pays tribute to Jack's outlaw nature. The East Side Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon red wine, Gold Mine Hills Chardonnay white wine, and Rum Barrel Aged Red Wine blend, all set in craft-spirits inspired bottles, is the perfect ode to a legendary outlaw and stands up to its name. Three Finger Jack - Outlaw by Nature.
Lodi is justifiably lauded for its old vine Zinfandels, but it is a production powerhouse when it comes to Cabernet Sauvignon. Lodi and its surrounding area (San Joaquin County) rank third in the state in acres planted to Cab, behind Napa and Paso Robles/San Luis Obispo County. But in total tons crushed Lodi is number one by a wide margin, surpassing Napa and Paso combined. In other words, Lodi produces more Cabernet Sauvignon than anywhere else in the U.S. This more volume-driven approach to viticulture makes possible the value-oriented bottlings that so many wine drinkers reach for on an everyday basis. These offer the varietal’s classic profile of dark fruit, oak influence, subtle herbal and green pepper notes and solid structure. Try Lodi Cabernet Sauvignon from wineries like Cosentino, Ironstone, Lapis Luna and The Federalist.
