New Release From The First Family Of Silver Oak!

2011 Meyer Family "Spitfire" Cabernet

Winestore Price: $44.99 (net)

Silver Oak Bonny's Vineyard Cabernet was, as you probably know from previous newsletters,  the most sought-after wine in the Silver Oak stable. Bonny Meyer's late husband Justin Meyer had named the vineyard for her, and it was the jewel in the crown that Justin Meyer crafted at Silver Oak. In 1991, he stopped making a single vineyard wine, insisting that Silver Oak's worldwide popularity made it too troublesome to continue to make a 400 case production wine, with every customer assuming that they could buy access to that limited production wine.

Interestingly enough, the vineyard right next door to Bonny's is called Spitfire, and the Meyer Family had their eye on it for more than 20 years. When the opportunity to finally purchase the vineyard arose around 2007 they jumped at the chance and have been crafting crazy good Oakville Cabernet from this site ever since. So yes - think special, very, very special.

So, there is never much to go around - a measly ten cases - we know that you guys love great California Cabernet. While not an everyday drinker, for less than $45 this is some stellar juice!!
