Winemaker Notes
The Hillside Winery where Chalk Hill meets Knights Valley sits on 53 acres, where the gravelly red soils are well suited to Cabernet Sauvignon and other Bordeaux grape varietals. The 2000 vintage is complex and brimming with ripe, black cherry flavors. The forward fruit character of blackberries, currants and chocolate marries with the soft toasty oak to produce a rich, lush, well-balanced and full-bodied wine.

Located at the southern tip of the Alexander Valley, Lancaster Estate rests in the foothills of the western Mayacamas Mountains at the confluence of the Chalk Hill and Knights Valley appellations. Within the rolling hills of this “golden triangle,” an ideal climate of warm days and cool nights combines with the region's myriad soil types to produce red wines of uncommon grace and style.
