Jed Steele the mastermind behind the blendng of Kendall Jacksons vintners cuvee chardonnay years ago.
Shooting star Sauv Blanc 2013 Lake County.. slight grassy, slight melon, herbacious.. nice enough
Writers Block Roussanne 2012 round and slightly honeyed to me not the typical young green olivey wine this grape produces... told being from a higher elevation makes it this way
Steele Pinot Blanc 2012... slightly disappointed with this because it came off being way more Chard like from the nose to the finish.. round for sure but too much smoky oaky vanilla
Shooting Star Blue Franc (lemberger) Blaufrankish juicy and smoky fun discovery wine
Steele Pinot Noir Carneros 2012.. typical dried fruits.. black cherry.. long finish
Steele Pacini Zinfandel 2011 planted in 1943 more about the zin than the alcohol.. rustic but not too earthy.. a slight bacon fat on the end
Stymie Merlot Lake County 2010... one of the nicest merlot i have tried in some time.. lots of silky tannin.. not a wimpy wine
