The Starbeam is Starfield Vineyards’ flagship wine, representing owner Tom Sinton’s dream of crafting premium Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Most of the fruit for this wine was sourced from vineyards in the Coombsville appellation, with just a touch coming from the rocky hillsides east of the Silverado Trail. The result is a Cabernet Sauvignon that beautifully expresses the rich black fruit and deep structure that cool climate Cabernets are known for. Deep purple in color, the 2012 The Starbeam offers aromatic notes of blackberries, blueberries, tea leaves and forest floor. The palate is dense, layered and luscious with flavors of dark berries and nutty oak.
