Our 2005 Starmont Cabernet Sauvignon displays aromatic notes of cassis, lifted black current, vanilla and exotic spices. The mouthfeel is round and focused with a long finish.
"Herb-laced currant and cherry flavors are direct, with cola and spice notes and smooth tannins. Drink now. 14,929 cases made. 82 points" Wine Spectator
Our estate cabernet sauvignon is a Bordeaux-style blend of approximately 75% cabernet, 22% merlot, and 3% cabernet franc, although the cepage varies by vintage. This high mountain, cool coastal vineyard is an unusual area for California cabernet sauvignon. Refreshing acidity and moderate alcohol reflect this uniqueness. Fine integrated tannins buttress typical flavors of red currant, blackberry, and earth. Cellaring between ten to fifteen years in recommended.
"Very ripe, with candied apple cinnamon cherry aromas and flavors that evolve into an earthier presence on the palate, with dried currant and spicy leathery notes. Drink now through 2012. 3,500 cases made. 89 points" Wine Spectator
