2023 Vintage. A very pleasant and easy drinking Napa Cab up front. Decent aroma on the nose, vibrant notes of cherry and blackberry, delicately structured tannins, with a very smooth finish. Not chewy or viscous, but still a bold Cab flavor that resonates with the right amount of spice. Would gladly enjoy again. — 6 days ago

Burst of blackberry aroma, earthy and smoky, with a hint of cigar aftertaste. Juicy and delicious, more than held its own with the Lafite Rothschild we also had at same dinner! — 5 months ago

Deep ruby color, medium plus intensity with aroma characteristics of black cherry, red plum and charred wood. Also some blackberry and clove on the palate. Medium plus acidity & medium tannins. High alcohol. Medium plus body and finish. Very good, drink or hold. — 3 years ago

Measured aroma, silky smooth texture, blackberry and cedar notes, grew more complex as the night wore on, probably still on the young side but still a special treat to have with a short rib and polenta dish. — 5 months ago

Aroma is uncanny; a perfume of rose petals and coconut cream wafting from the glass. Totally beguiling. Vanilla and marzipan lead the way with fresh and dried red berries, red cherries, dried flowers and orange peel. So polished, but this needs more time for the oak and fruit to integrate. The 2010 Ardanza remains my favorite now for its classical balance. — 5 years ago

This was a gift from a close friend who worked for Silver Oak as a garden manager until they eliminated that part of their business. Beautiful color in the glass. Ruby with a hint of rust on the edge. Aroma is complex with berries and flint. Also just a hint of pine needles. Christmas trees. Flavors are full and fine. This is BIG BOY wine. Delicious. — 4 months ago

WOW! Haven't had wine this good since France...sigh. love this, so complex with a beautiful color. Lovely on the nose, I hesitate to drink it since the aroma is so pleasant. They should make candles that smell this nice. Beautifully balanced with just the right amount of earth, tannins, fruit. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ — 2 years ago
