"The overall structure of the wine could be described as fresh and very approachable." -Winemaker

Extremely enjoyable Zinfandel - big fruit on the nose with blackberry jam predominant.

The 2007 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 1886 is a classic expression of our North St. Helena terroir. This vintage brought us a rich, powerful, dense Cabernet with all the elegance and soft, silky tanin that have always defined our Estate.

Tangerine oil, lemon blossom, crushed rocks, white currants, and a hint of honeysuckle are present in this full-bodied, rich, pure, and layered wine.

"Subdued but pleasing scent of ripe berry jam. Silky textured core of black cherry and berry fruit with a hint of savory herbs. A lively grip of acidity on the finish makes you yearn for another sip. Good, and a solid value." -Prince of Pinot

Emanating from the glass is a deep perfume of roasted black cherry, brambly mountain berry, dried flower, orange peel, tobacco, oak and suede.

A very tightly wound, high-strung wine upon bottling, the Star Lane Cabernet has opened itself up into a fresh and striking mouthful that begs both immediate enjoyment and long term cellaring.
