An explosion of black fruit - plum, boysenberry, blackberry, cassis, anise, marjoram, bay leaf - sheer opulence without being heavy. Just a gorgeous bottle of Cabernet with velvet tannins and a wonderfully long finish. magical

16.5/20 (91/100) Развитой букет ароматов в котором доминируют чёрные ягоды (скорее черника, чем чёрная смородина), кофе, сухая древесина. Тельное с высокой кислотностью. Танины довольно интенсивные, приятной текстуры. Ягодное-шоколадное во вкусе. #dfwe2019

Bought 4 at shoppers corner. Had the 2009 vintage in 2018 for my birthday. It was fantastic. I hope this is as good. Give one to Bill Bottenberg for his 75th birthday

I’ve loved solo in the past but the 2013 vintage is a bit flat on the finish. Flavour great...

Beautiful drinking. With alcohol burned off and complex bottle aging, you can literally finish bottles at a go.

2008 ANV Solo single barrel. Tasting great now. Dark garnet, cassis with bittersweet chocolate on the finish. Good balance with med tannins.

Started in 1981 by Ron and Diane Disney Miller. Three generations, almost 40 years later, Miller Family continues to source grapes entirely from their family-owned estate Napa vineyards. 100% Cab, elegant dark fruit aromas with herb and oak notes. Blackberry, currants and raspberry, pepper spice and leather. Fine tannins, lingering fresh finish ending withoak and mineral tang. Very nice.

Very primary at this point. Brooding even. Needs another five years to settle down, but for now there's an intriguing herbal note to pair with the rich dark fruit. Silverado is still a fantastic value play in Napa.

Blackberry, raspberry, cherry, mocha, vanilla, eucalyptus and oak. Great structure and velvety tannins.
