Starry Night's 2002 Terre Vermeille Vineyard from Lake County is a big and expressive Zinfandel that shows a ruby color with opaque intensity. On the nose are luscious aromas of wild berries, blackberries, black pepper and smoky oak with a touch of pencil shavings that waft from the glass with a persistent intensity. But it is on the palate that this wine shows it talent. Rich flavors follow the nose and are enveloped within a tight structure. Smooth round tannins and lively acidity keeps the body lean. Generous alcohol at 15.6% provides warmth and softness to the body and is well balanced with the other elements. The wine has a long persistent finish and is very agreeable with the palate. Approximately 295 cases made.
