2005 Silverado Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon $44.99 92 Points The Wine News Like Cupid having enough arrows in his quiver, it's important to have some "classic" wines in your cellar, and the Silverado 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon fits that bill at a reasonable price. Medium to full-bodied with aromas and flavors of plum, cedar, dried herbs and earth and firm tannins with the structure to age for 5-7 years. "Dense inky-purple hue. Pretty scents that showcase maple, blackberry and oaky aromas. Well balanced on entry with a pretty blend of focused black fruit, citrus-laced acids and soft, combed tannins. Tart cherry fruit shines in the clean close with coffee and great backing of oaky tannins."

Francis Ford Coppola Director’s Cut 2006 $25.99 Francis Ford Coppola's 2006 Director’s Cut Cabernet offers a rich perfume of plums, cherries, wild berries and cedar as well as dark, decadent flavors of blueberries, cassis, cocoa and spice. This vintage experienced a 20% reduction in crop yield. Having less fruit automatically enables the grapes to develop more concentration, which is exactly what happened here. Not only are the wine’s tannins sweet and mature from the extended growing season, the flavors are ripe, lush and prolonged on the finish because of the fruit’s immense concentration.
