SILVER OAK |
| Very deep intense purple colour. Very cedary, intense, ripe plum-cherry puree nose with some coconut notes. Fairly dry, medium-full bodied, dense, fairly bright, spicy, baked plum flavours with lots of cedary, intense, mocha-chocolate-coconut notes on the lingering, fairly high acid finish. This blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot has 14.1% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar. The 2012 (***) with 92-points was released on November 25, 2017 at only $184.95. TONY ASPLER / 91-points - Intense, cedary, nose masking black stone fruit aromatics; medium to full-bodied, richly extracted plum and blackcurrant flavours, firmly structured but still tight. Hold five years at least. |

| Founded in 1972, Silver Oak is one of Napa's most prestigious estates. It's renowned for a single-minded focus on producing consistently rich, characterful Cabernet-based wines that are perfect cellar candidates. The 2013 vintage is known for its especially structured and concentrated wines, so expect a wine overflowing with dark fruit and built to last. Pair with thick steaks or hearty, meaty pasta dishes. |
