Silver Oak
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
Garnet color with black cherry, cassis, tobacco, and a bit of dried herb aromas. On the palate, it's medium-bodied with a soft texture, fine-grained tannis and good acidity with black cherry, cassis, and a bit of plum and spice flavors. Lingering sweet finish Blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc & 3% Petit Verdot. Aged in 100% New American Oak Barrels for 24 Months, then 20 Months in Bottle. Very good now, but would benefit from further cellaring
