WA 95 JS 95 Pts - James Suckling raves "I really like the polish to this. I think of Leoville-Las-Cases when I taste this."
Winemaker Notes - Pure ripe red fruit aromas with layers of earth and spice. Broad palate with plum fruit and hints of dried herb that lead to a finish with perfectly balanced tannin. Crafted entirely from grapes grown on Silverado’s Stags Leap Vineyard surrounding the winery, SOLO has one driving philosophy: location. One of the first three vineyards planted to Cabernet in the appellation, Silverado’s Stags Leap vineyard helped establish the reputation of the District. Specific clone selection, (Silverado’s on Heritage Clone, UCD 30), micro block fermentation, a restrained approach to oak aging: everything Silverado does with SOLO is tailored to honor the purity of fruit which expresses this special site in the heart of Napa Valley. Rated 90+
