6/24/2017 - jmorgand wrote: 92 pointsA really nice cab with some decanting. Great structure. Not terribly complex but still very pleasing. A little high on the alcohol. Would probably be better in 2 years. I'm scoring based on its potential. |

2012 Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valleymore |
5/26/2017 - jmorgand Does not like this wine: 78 pointsI'm more and more disappointed with Silver Oak. I bought this and a Bodeaux blend at a fraction of the cost tonight. The blend is blowing this SO crap out of the water. I've been consistently disappointed with SO over the last few years. They need to fire their current staff and start over. Ridiculous. |

2011 Caymus Cabernet SauvignonNapa Valley more |
10/14/2016 - jmorgand Likes this wine: 96 pointsI waited for a while to take this one out of my Eurocave. I apparently hit the mother load. It's now amazing. 2012 and 2013 are awful. This is beautiful. Not too much oak or vanilla. Gorgeous fruit from beginning to end. This wine is now the equivalent of the best sex I ever had in my my early 30s. Amazing. I wish I had more. 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (2) |

2007 Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valleymore |
6/10/2016 - jmorgand Does not like this wine: 75 pointsWeak. No complexity whatsoever. Decanted over 2 hours, and no life came to it. Extremely disappointed. I suppose this is one for the masses who don't truly appreciate great wines. If Walmart had a wine this would be their house wine. 4 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (3) |

2006 Fisher Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Wedding VineyardSonoma County more |
5/24/2016 - jmorgand Does not like this wine: 83 pointsI'm extremely disappointed. I would expect much more from a $150 wine. Extremely high alcohol taste, flat with harsh beginning and quick finish. No complexity to speak of. I refuse to waste wine, so I'll have to finish it sadly. BTW, served at cellar temp and decanted. |

2/27/2016 - jmorgand wrote: 89 pointsHUGE difference between this and the 2012. Nowhere near as powerful. I see why Parker gave this an 86 and the '12 a 99. Good thing it was $25 cheaper. Also a good thing that I have two more twelves in my Eurocave. |
