Vintage Notes From abundant winter rains to cool spring weather, warm summer temperatures and October’s wildfires, 2017 is a memorable vintage. Plentiful winter rains helped refresh our vines and led to a cool, mild spring. Due in part to these warmer temperatures, 90% of Napa Valley’s grape tonnage was harvested before the wine country wildfires began. Based on Silverado’s house wine style, we typically pick early and were fortunate to have 100% of our fruit harvested with no smoke impact.
Tasting Notes A perfumed nose with aromas of wild strawberry, dried pink roses, white tea, hibiscus tea and marjoram. Medium-bodied with bright acidity and flayors of juicy red plum, pomegranate and freshly picked cherries.
