To make Jefferson’s Reserve Pritchard Hill Cabernet Finish, the process starts with Jefferson’s Reserve Kentucky straight bourbon and extra age it for 12 months in French Oak casks that once held Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine barrels that matured the most sought-after wine in the Chappellet portfolio lend a sweetness to the bourbon by adding notes of dark berry, espresso and chocolate.

Founder and Master Blender Trey Zoeller decided to offer Jefferson’s Reserve, the most quintessential bourbon in the Jefferson's portfolio, at a higher proof to satisfy the thirst of a bigger, more-robust Reserve offering. One that would enhance the flavors without being too strong. The single barrel allows the great Jefferson’s Reserve flavors to be amplified at the enhanced proof.

Founded in 1997, Jefferson’s is the brainchild of Trey Zoeller and his father Chet, a famed bourbon historian. They were continuing a family whiskey tradition that goes back to Trey’s 8th generation grandmother who was arrested in 1799 for the “production and sales of spirituous liquors.” His curious and experimental mindset has allowed him to push the boundaries of bourbon whiskey. Upholding tradition, yet always discovering new possibilities.
