2017 vintage – 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc, 8% Petit Verdot, 4% Malbec. Primary growing regions: Mendocino, Sonoma, and Napa counties. Vineyards: The grapes for Silver Palm Cabernet Sauvignon are primarily sourced from California’s North Coast AVA, which includes Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino counties. These growing regions are uniquely influenced by cool coastal air and fog from the Pacific Ocean, resulting in temperate mesoclimates ideal for the cultivation of seductive Cabernet Sauvignon.Tasting Notes: :Our Cabernet Sauvignon is dark ruby in color, with aromas of black currants, anise, tobacco, and dark chocolate. On the palate the wine presents flavors of blackberries, cherries, cocoa and toasty oak, which are complemented by soft tannins that lead to a silky finish. The 2017 was another exceptional harvest. Winter and spring rains provided the necessary water to support vines through a healthy spring flowering and fruit set. The summer provided warm days and cool nights which provided rich flavor development. The resulting wine is dark in color with ripe fruit character and integrated tannins.
