Description

 


 


93 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate


"This superb Cabernet producer has finally released its splendid 1991s. The 1991 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon boasts a dark ruby color, a rich, ostentatious, sweet vanillin, her, and black currant-scented nose, and gobs of rich, herb-tinged, juicy fruit, the opulent texture that Silver Oak routinely obtains.  There is plenty of fat, glycerin, and alcohol in the long finish.  Both wines are already delicious, and will age graceully for 12-15 years." (October 1995)


91 points Wine Spectator



*Top 100 and Highly Recommended* Lavishly oaked, with an herb and dill edge to the currant and berry fruit. It is a rich and harmonious style, with layers of flavor. Firmly tannic, it can stand cellaring into 1998 to 2000 and still be massive.  (11/1995)
