2016 has classic Star Lane Cabernet Sauvignon aromas of blue and red fruits, accented with fresh herbs (sage) and floral qualities. The real difference is observed in the mouth feel. Unlike 2015 where Cabernet struggled to have the girth and roundness we've become accustomed to, 2016's generous fruit profile and richer textures almost needed restraint. The texture allows the wine to be enjoyed quite young, however time will certainly reward those who wait as complexity increases aromatically.
