Silverado Vineyards
Estate Grown Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
Very well done rich and delicious CS from California, the wine needs a bit more time, yet if you let it breath you can also enjoy it today. Deep dark red in color, lovely nose, sweet cedar, licorice, black current, a touch of herbs and coffee, full rich round body with firm tannins almost chewy, fantastic acidity and a long dry finish. My first experience with this winery, certainly not my last. My score 90, drink to 2022

The nose on this wine is very expressive in dark fruits, sweet plum, black raspberries, currants, vanilla, cola, pencil lead and earthy notes. I could sit here and just sniff this all night and be satisfied. At first sip the dance continues with expression of a nice Bordeaux Blend. The dark fruit is very nice and the balance is exceptional. Blackberries, riper plum, notes of cocoa, nice rich tannins, a good earthy feel with a medium to full + mouth feel. What a nice Cab!!!!! WOW!

First glass was rich, chocolatey, earthy. Each glass after lost all of its complexity and acidity. It died in the decanter.

Tonight's selection from the wine cellar, curious as to how it will taste.
