| 2007 Lancaster Cabernet Sauvignon "Estate" Winery: Lancaster Vintage: 2007 Wine Name/Vineyard: "Estate" Wine Category: Cabernet Sauvignon Grape blend: 80% Cabernet, 9% Merlot, 9% Malbec, 1% Cabernet Franc, & 1% Petit Verdot Region: Alexander Valley State or country: CA Price: $65 Cases produced: 3,134 KWG Score: 92 (based on 5 reviews) Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good+ (90) Review date: January 23, 2012 Wine Review: This opaque and very dark purple colored wine opens with a mild black cherry bouquet with hint of mild oak. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, and smooth. The flavor profile is a mild black currant and black cherry with notes of old oak and a hint of plum. The finish is dry and it's fine tannins are easy going and friendly. This wine would pair well with many foods. I would choose veal scallopini with a brown mushroom sauce. Enjoy – Ken Winemaker Notes: Estate grown, produced and bottled, our 2007 Lancaster Estate Cabernet is intense with dark stone fruit, blackberry, and white pepper with hints of chocolate dust. The red plum and heritage rose aromas compliment finely textured tannins while the earthy finish rounds out the toast and complexity. Aged 28 months in French oak barrels, this wine was bottled unfiltered. Organic status: not organic Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Lancaster 2007 Estate Cabernet.
