2020 Silver Lake Reserve Cabernet
Tasting notes
Medium-bodied and smooth, this wine is easy drinking and is specially blended to pair with a wide range of foods while delivering surprising complexity and richness. Our Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is cherry-red in color with an aroma of chocolate, cola, and dark berry. Flavors of black cherry, chocolate and spice dominate, with silky tannins on the finish.
Ripe Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were harvested, crushed and de-stemmed, and then
transferred to a stainless steel tank where the juice was inoculated with a selected yeast strain.
The wine was fermented at ~80oF for 14 days using pump-overs for gentle tannin extraction.
Upon completion of secondary fermentation, the wine was transferred to Barrels where it was
aged until bottling. The wine was then prepped for bottling through filtration, and bottled in
January of 2025.
