The Wines

Andrew Lane Gamay Noir has the mouth-feel and velvety texture of a Pinot Noir, with a more vibrant, red fruit character. It offers a lively bouquet and flavor of fresh red cherries, red currents, with touches of strawberry and spice on the finish.

Andrew Lane's 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon showcases more fruit ripeness than traditional Napa Cabs. Its hue is deep ruby in color with aromas of bing cherries, strawberries, red roses, cacao and a slight hint of cedar. A thick mouthfeel delivers fresh flavors of berries and plum with lush, soft tannins and a delicious finish.
