Grabbed a bottle of that at my local place about a month ago too when they had it on sale. Never had it before so i didn't get multiples. Saving it for a special occasion. Is it worth the price?
how much you pay? what year?
kinda subjective i guess, but really depends on your personal taste. impo jordan puts out pretty consistently good cab (some years better than others) but i'm a fan

'09; after discounts and coupons I only paid like $18, but normal price is $65.
I assume it'll be good, but will it be

that's a very good price. i'm sure you'll enjoy it. it's probably gets a little better over the next year or 2 but it's still good now. not sure what your taste in wine is like so i won't promise that you'll be mindblown but you will definitely like it if you like cali cabs.

I've been a straight up wino since '08. Malbecs are my favorite, particularly Alamos. I love the robust flavor and spiciness. Raymond Vineyards makes the best Cab I've had before. Rioja tempranillos are another go to. I love bold, heavy tannin wines like red zins, syrahs and shiraz as well. I don't really fukk with white wine any more. M. Chapoutier makes the best white wine I've ever had though. It's a Rhone blend Côtes-du-Rhône White Belleruche 2012 M.CHAPOUTIER
I might have a riesling or, very rarely, a rose on a hot summer day once in a while, but never a bottle. White Zin and Moscato is the devil
Gewurztraminers are a nice alternative to people still stuck in that white zin, moscato life.

I just came from Woodinville a few months back on a wine trip.
My favorites out there are Januik and Dusted Valley (they're right down the street from each other). Mark Ryan, which is right next to Dusted Valley, has alot of high scoring wines. I thought they were good but not crucial in my opinion but I guess you could check them out too.
The main problem with these places is that the prices are
. Chateau St Michelle has wines at every price point but all of the bottles at these places are $25+. But Washington/Oregon wines are really great so it depends on how much you want to throw money around.
