Produced in limited quantities from select vineyard sites in Dry Creek Valley, Jones Family and Friends focused on classically styled Cabernet Sauvignon that emphasized balance and regional character over heavily extracted winemaking. Dry Creek Valley’s warm days, cool evenings, and gravelly benchland soils provide ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon, allowing the fruit to achieve full ripeness while retaining structure and freshness. The “Private Reserve” bottling reflects the traditional Sonoma approach to Cabernet from the era, highlighting the valley’s combination of ripe fruit, savory complexity, and approachable tannic structure.
