Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2009-2012, Jancis Robinson MW, Mar 2010

Very dark. Thick and sweet and black cherry jam-like. Hard work in terms of awkward acid on the finish though not TOO exaggerated and with some sinewy, quite polished tannins. Pretty lush with some vibrancy. Recalls Fry’s Turkish Delight (very unlike the real thing.) Blind guess: mountain. Revealed location: valley. (JR)

The 2006 Solo has a dense purple color, a big, sweet nose of lead pencil shavings intermixed with creme de cassis, new saddle leather, charcoal, and spice box. Its brilliant delineation and full-bodied texture, with nothing out of place in a seamless integration of all its building blocks make for a stylistic, flavorful, elegant, yet powerful wine to drink over the next 20-25 years. This is a strong group of wines from Silverado, and certainly a great deal of credit must go to winemaker Jonathan Emmerich. Tel. (707) 257-1770
