Aged for 17 months in French oak, this elegant Cabernet Sauvignon combines ripe fruit, refined structure and classic Napa richness, offering immediate appeal while rewarding further cellaring. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 54, 136);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe wine opens with aromas of ripe cherry, plum, cedar and dried herbs, complemented by subtle notes of sweet spice and toasted oak. The palate is medium to full-bodied with silky tannins, vibrant acidity and layers of dark fruit, finishing long, smooth and beautifully balanced.

Aged in 40% new oak (almost entirely French, although there is a small Hungarian component), it marries notes of cedar and dried spices with ripe cherries. It's medium to full-bodied, silky textured and open-knit, not hugely rich or concentrated, just a nice, balanced effort to drink over the next decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most recent addition to Bill Foley's wine portfolio, Silverado Vineyards was purchased from the Disney family heirs in June 2022. It's a superbly situated property in Stags Leap District, but it also has estate vineyards in Yountville, Coombsville and off Soda Canyon Road, totaling approximately 320 acres. Current winemaker Alison Rodriguez is also a recent arrival. Following several years in wine sales across Europe, the Baton Rouge native attended Geisenheim to study winemaking, then worked at Sterling, Beringer and The Hess Collection before landing at Silverado on the first day of the 2022 crush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The personal journey in 2022 was, 'Where do I find freshness in this vintage?'\" said Rodriguez. \"The challenge was maintaining freshness across the palate and through the finish,\" she said. Like several winemakers I spoke with on this trip to Napa, she tried back-blending some 2023, but in her case, she said she didn't feel it worked. \"There's no getting around it, there was just more to work with than in '22.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo illustrate, she poured a barrel sample of the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Limited, a six-barrel, 60–40 blend of Coombsville and Stags Leap fruit that probably won't be released until 2026. Intensely concentrated and tannic, it's impressive, with probably close to three decades of aging potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVivino | \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(158, 0, 57); text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eVivino 4.2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlum, spice, earth, dried herb and sweet oak aromas.

Napa pioneers first planted these ranches to vines between 18965 and 1895. Each vineyard played an important role in establishing the reputation of its appellation: Carneros, Coomsville, Yountville and Stags Leap District. The beautiful fruit from these vineyards is the exclusive source of Silverado Vineyards' Estate and Single Vineyard wines - the Miller family's highest expression of the Napa Valley they love and admire. Generations of the Miller family hope you enjoy our Cabernet Sauvignon for many more years to come. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePerfectly ripe cherry and plum flavors and hints of apricot and toasted oak lead to a long finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAPPELLATION: Napa Valley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVARIETAL: Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCOOPERAGE: Aged 17 months in oak, 42% new oak\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeritage\u003cbr\u003eMT.
