Reviews and Ratings

From Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California, Silver Oak 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied, big and fleshy Cabernet Sauvignon with a splash of Merlot added, concentrated with ripe blackberry, dark plum, dark cherry, savoury herbs, cedar and smoky flavours on the palate. Expressive and impressive! Enjoy with a prime rib steak done rare. Drink or hold. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
