WS 91 (10/1992): Stylish, rich and complex, with classy, smoky oak notes adding dimension and flavor to the dense, chewy core of currant and herb-laced Cabernet flavors that are long and full. One of the better '88s. Drinks well now, but should hold and gain through 1996 20,600 cases made.
WA 82 (10/1993): Justin Meyer's weakest vintage over the last decade has been 1988. Both the 1988 Alexander Valley and Napa Cabernets are light wines, lacking the concentration, intensity, and joy that Silver Oak Cabernets normally provide. |

WA 90 (12/1996): In my October tasting both 1993 Cabernets were more tannic and closed than the 1992s. The 1993 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley offers up a whiff of herbs in its tight nose, followed by chocolatey, spicy, black-cherry, and cassis flavors, an exotic, medium to full-bodied, concentrated palate, and moderate tannin in the lusty finish. It does not possess the definition and structure of the Napa cuvee, but it is more forward and fleshy. These All-American Cabernet Sauvignons continue to be "can't miss" propositions with the majority of Cabernet lovers.
WS 86 (11/2003): A classic Silver Oak, with signature dill aromas. Shows earth, currant, lead pencil and metallic flavors, turning dry and tannic.--1993 California Cabernet retrospective. Drink now. 40,000 cases made. |

WA 90 (12/2005): The Alexander Valley cuvee is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged in new oak. The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley offers abundant quantities of spice, vanillin, cedar, herbs, and smoke, soft, round, creamy-textured flavors, good black cherry and currant notes, and a spicy, medium-bodied, easy-going personality. Enjoy it over the next 7-10 years.
VM 88 (6/2006): Bright red-ruby. Aromas of currant, chocolate, graphite, cedar and menthol, with a powerful overlay of pungent American oak. Round, ripe and surprisingly creamy and generous in the mouth, with fruit-driven flavors of currant, graphite and chocolate. Finishes with substantial, building oak tannins that manage to avoid coming off as dry.
WS 86 (11/2006): Supple, with creamy vanilla and mocha oak providing a nice flavor dimension, joining dried currant, anise and sage flavors. Drink now through 2010. 70,000 cases made. |

WA 87 (6/2013): Abundant notes of roasted herbs, aggressive toasty vanillin and a woodsy character emerge from this medium dark garnet-colored wine that is revealing some lightness at the edge. The Silver Oak Cellars offerings seem far less concentrated and impressive than they did 15-20 years ago. This 2003 reveals a distinctive herbaceousness as well as a nose of Asian spices, black cherries, black currants, spice box and loads of forest floor and underbrush scents. Its American oak aging is somewhat intrusive, even at age ten. Fully mature, it needs to be drunk up.
WS 86 (10/2007): Tight, earthy and unusually tannic for this wine, with fresh earth, mineral and dried currant fruit shaded by a dill-coconut flavor. Drink now through 2012. 70,000 cases made. |
