Silver Oak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon - 1990 (750ml) viner 27 A classic TaillepiedsThe 1990 Napa Cabernet exhibits a Graves like bouquet of tobacco, cassis, minerals, and spice. Chewy and full bodied, with stunning extraction of fruit, this velvety wine should drink well for 12 15 years. This wine, first reviewed in issue #89, is repeated to remind readers that the 1990 Silver Oak Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley and Napa cuvee, as well as the 1989 Bonny's Vineyard Cabernet have finally been released.
