Bid on this 2-bottle lot of 1997 Silver Oak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon (94RP). Wine Advocate: "The 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa looks to be one of the finest wines made by the winemaking team of proprietor Justin Meyer and winemaker/viticulturist Daniel Baron. The 1997 Napa is an impressive effort. A blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest 5% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, this wine has a flamboyant nose of fruitcake, licorice, Asian spice, black currants, and toasty wood. Deep, opulent, viscous, intense, chewy, and thick, it is a classic Napa Cabernet Sauvignon made in an all-American oak lovers' style. (RP)" (12/2000)

Included in this lot · 2 bottles

Provenance: Purchased from a reputable source and stored in the temperature controlled cellar of a Bay Area collector. Picked-up directly from the cellar by K&L.

Notes

Silver Oak was founded to focus on Cabernet Sauvignon in 1972 by entrepreneur Raymond Twomey Duncan and winemaker Justin Meyer, and makes two key wines based on their respective AVAs. The Napa Valley bottling is a blend of estate vineyards with tiny proportions of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec, and Merlot depending on the vintage.
