A second label from Lancaster Estate, and a very good one. Starts with evocative aromas of cassis and blackcurrants, smoky oak, vanilla, and a hint of sweet green olive. Round and smooth in the mouth, with pronounced but fine tannins that cover blackberry and herb flavors.

A very nice and smooth Cab, with a texture like velvet and an elegant overall feeling. It shows cassis, green olive, smoke and cedar flavors and is bone dry.

A lush, satisfying wine that shows the soft tannins and herbal character that marks Cabs from this northern Sonoma County appellation. Smooth and dry, its flavors are of blackberries, sage, tobacco, anise and cedar.

Some Sonoma Coast Pinots are dark, heavy and dense, and this is one of them. It’s so rich and full-bodied in black cherry, raspberry and currant fruit, it’s almost like a Rhône wine. Defines a certain style, and delicious at that, but not likely to age, so drink now.

Sweet, soft and candied, with black cherry and raspberry jam, Dr. Pepper cola and cedar flavors. Seems pricey for what you get.

Lots of crunchy acidity in this Chardonnay, and smoky oak too, with buttered toast and pineapple jam flavors. Tastes rich, clean, fine and opulent, in the California style. fine and opulent, in the California style.

You can think of this as a second label of Lancaster, the Cab producer whose estate vineyard the grapes come from. It’s a pretty good Cab, strongly flavored and dry, with brisk tannins and a streak of herbs. The currant flavors taste a little overripe and raisiny.
