Notes on the Wine
At Star Lane in Happy Canyon, Bordelaise varietals thrive under this steady climate, producing wines of precision, freshness, and depth. Cabernet Sauvignon once again forms the backbone of the blend, complemented by Cabernet Franc’s lifted spice and density, with Petit Verdot and Merlot lending nuance and harmony. The resulting wine is both structured and graceful, carrying forward the estate’s hallmark balance of power and refinement.
Notes on the Producer
Star Lane Vineyard stands as a singular expression of the Happy Canyon AVA, where warm, sun-filled days and cool Pacific evenings create the perfect conditions for growing exceptional Bordeaux varietals. Our 100% estate fruit is cultivated in the dramatic, undulating terrain of our vineyard, allowing each block to develop distinct character and complexity.
Under the guidance of winemaker Tyler Thomas, we craft Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and other classic varietals that capture the depth, structure, and elegance that define this unique terroir. Every bottle reflects a meticulous approach—from vineyard to cellar—designed to showcase purity of fruit, balance, and remarkable aging potential. These wines are not just a reflection of our land; they are a testament to our enduring commitment to excellence and our passion for producing age-worthy, world-class wines that tell the story of Star Lane with every glass.
