Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Tropical yellow fruit and fresh garden greens on the nose let you know exactly what you’re in for: A crisp, zesty, summery wine. Tangy grapefruit, peach and grassy flavors follow through on the clean finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
It tastes like it smells—like lots of toast and butterscotch. Palate also offers some yellow fruit and an a fresh herbal streak (or maybe it’s pine needles?). The same herbal note shows again on the finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Gaminess, thin cherry and light toast aromas meet tart red fruit and woody flavors. The acidity is good and firm, while the finish is tinged with cranberry and red plum. —K.F.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
If eucalyptus is your thing, look no further, because there’s plenty of it here, accenting cherry and plum fruit on the palate. Has interesting Indian spice aromas on the nose; finishes with tealike tannins. Could use more stuffing, too. - D.M.

Starvedog Lane Cabernet Sauvignon - 1999

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Bright springtime-and-honey aromas are welcoming on the nose. The palate is one on which yellow fruit—everything from pears, apples, even lemon—takes the reins, with lactic-butter flavor underneath. Slick and round in the mouth, it closes with a prickly lemon-herb feel.

Starvedog Lane Chardonnay - 2001

0 out of 0 people thought this note was helpful.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Has all the working parts that a good Oz red needs: fleshy plum fruit, judicious oak, and a please-all medium size. Smells earthy, and finishes with a taut smack of plum skin. Contains 6% Viognier, but its telltale floral qualities aren’t so obvious here. Imported by Pacific Wine Partners.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a straightforward Chard, one for those who prefer not to drink their butter and toast. This wine offers dusty lemon aromas and white stone fruit on the palate. 2,000 cases produced. Imported by Pacific Wine Partners.

Starvedog Lane Chardonnay - 2004

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A good SB, but not a lot of verve. Offers lime flavors, and a minerally feel. Lemon flavors bring the wine to a tart close. Imported by Pacific Wine Partners.
