1994 Silver Oak Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley
Reviews of 1994 Silver Oak Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley
94 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
December 1996
The 1994 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley exhibits an opaque purple color, gobs of sweet, blackcurrant, plum, and raspberry fruitiness, along with some sexy, toasty oak. On the palate, this explosive Cabernet reveals layers of rich, jammy fruit, low acid, and that velvety texture that is so much a characteristic of this vintage. These All-American Cabernet Sauvignons continue to be "can't miss" propositions with the majority of Cabernet lovers.

About the Wine
"The 2000 growing season will be remembered for the harvest that wouldn’t end. A mild spring induced even flowering and a good set. By mid-September it had warmed up and harvest was in full swing. Then the weather shifted radically and the end of September was unseasonably cool. Extra time on the vine was beneficial for wine quality and harvest was finally completed on November 1st, the longest in our 29 year history.
Winemaker’s Tasting Notes: The 2000 Alexander Valley is a classic, rich Cabernet Sauvignon with a ruby-red color and an expressive nose of cassis, blueberries, blackberries, soy sauce and vanilla. It is luscious and full-bodied on the palate and has an incredibly long finish of ripe berry fruit, vanilla and a hint of dill. This wine will continue to improve until 2018 given proper cellaring. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon"
