Red Wine - Silver Oak 2004 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Wine
2004 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a refined and complex wine that combines subtlety and depth. It has a dark ruby color with a deep red edge and displays aromas of fresh blackberries, violets, cola, nutmeg and licorice. In mouth, wine has a juicy attack and offers great expression of fruit and spice on mid-palate. Its fruit-driven finish is long and elegant. Properly cellared, this wine should give drinking pleasure through 2023.Our 2004 Alexander Valley, a blend of wine from several different vineyards, is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
We blended vineyard lots in early 2005 and transferred wine to 50% new and 50% once-used American oak barrels for aging. Blending prior to barreling allows us to achieve a balance of wine’s natural elements, such as fruit and tannin, before they are influenced by oak. wine was then aged in barrel forapproximately 25 months and another 15 months in bottle to harmonize its components before release.
Wine & Spirits rating: 90.
