Silverado Vineyards 2020 Firetree Chardonnay
The Firetree vineyard, nestled amidst steep 30- to 50-degree slopes of sandstone and shale with the San Pablo Bay's cooling influence, is a prime location for Chardonnay and an exemplary representation of Carneros' finest offerings. This complex, full-bodied Chardonnay boasts enticing floral, stone fruit, citrus, and spice aromas and flavors, balanced acidity, and a creamy mouthfeel that culminates in a clean, minerally finish.
Silverado Vineyards 2019 Cabernet Franc
The Mt. George Vineyard in Coombsville has a remarkable history dating back to the 19th century, playing witness to one of the initial grape plantings in the valley. Since the Miller family acquired the land in 1988, the grape plantings have been nothing short of exceptional. The deep volcanic shale and tufa soils of the region produce Cabernet Franc with fragrant fruity aromas, subtle herbaceous notes, and a sophisticated taste that features refined tannins.
Silverado Vineyards 2018 Geo Cabernet Sauvignon
Ron and Diane Miller acquired the Mt George Vineyard in 1988, which is the location of the initial vinifera plantings in the Coombsville AVA. This vineyard is situated in a serene corner of the Napa Valley, a few miles to the east of Napa city, and is an incredibly robust vineyard. As the 20th anniversary of Silverado's first Mt George harvest approached in 2012, it was decided that a wine should be made for the occasion. This wine is called GEO, which is a Greek word for "Earth" and a shortened version of "George." It is the highest expression of a single-vineyard Cabernet from this exceptional location.
