w.h. wednesday part 2

Silverado winery with Jonathan Emmerich Winemaker

Silverado Sauv Blanc 2008 a sweet nose and lots of grapefruit after just having orange juice.

Silverado Chardonnay 2007 clear straw color, light toasty and soft ml, clean fruit and nice texture.

2005 Silverado Merlot Napa dark cloudy and brooding in the glass...tannins on the back..cool climate merlot is a good thing.. 11% cab

2005 Silverado Cab Napa sweet cassis and pencil lead..soft tannins and very smooth..the merlot was actually more of a texture...some tobacco and tar on the finish.

Silverado Solo 2005 100% cab, clear in the glass..dusty on the palate with nice black berry fruits.. very viscous..a teeth stainer
