Silver Oak

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Solid Sonoma Cab that tastes like Left Bank Bordeaux. Supple feel, dark berries, cedar, graphite, tobacco. A little eucalyptus and a little espresso. Lengthy tannins. Drinkable now and will age for some time.

No, the wine was nice! Just pulling the Radiohead song that was on at that moment 😀 But @Anthony De Blasi was going for it!

Silver Oak

Bonny's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

This is what I remember about great California Cabs. In my cellar for 25+ years. Popped the cork and left air 2 hours before decanting for another hour. A hint of the coconut marker while first decanting but blew off quickly. Great color and condition. — 5 months ago

Mayacamas Range Napa Estate Zinfandel 2016

These are recalled impressions, not contemporaneous notes, from two nights ago, when the family council of elders met for a steak/wine pairing event at my brother Angelo’s house.

Another consensus favorite, the ‘16 version is stellar. So deep, but with that elusive (for Zin) old-world sense of balance, structure, and restraint. Paired beautifully with both kinds of steaks

Great vineyard. Dr. Seps was really one of the trailblazers for elegant, though structured, claret-style Zinfandel!!
