Silver Oak, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Vintage:2020 an alouette is a lark)A super creamy, delicious and detailed red with oodles of red fruit, silky tannins and a full body. It tastes pure, fresh, almost delicate, offering raspberries, cherry cream, blueberries, cafe au lait and subtle oak toast on the palate.
