Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Barely ripe, with green citrus and feline spray aromas and flavors. On the plus side is extreme dryness and crisp acidity. You’ll either love or hate this wine.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Too sweet and oaky, with sugary vanilla and pineapple jam flavors. Could be a Starbucks drink. Saved a bit by crisp acidity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Pretty good price for a Cabernet this elegant and rich. Starmont is a kind of second label to the excellent producer, Merryvale, and this ’07 shows a fine pedigree, as well as the general quality of the vintage. It’s dry and balanced, with complex blackberry, currant and oak flavors. Drink now–2013.

Starmont Cabernet Sauvignon - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A dry, gentle Merlot, likeable for its rich tannic structure and complex flavors. Shows berry, cherry, currant, dark chocolate and sandalwood flavors, with a clean, spicy finish. Drink now with a nice grilled steak, brushed with garlic butter and plenty of pepper.
