WINE DESCRIPTION
Tyros wine epitomizes Napa Valley's diversity, sourcing grapes from various AVAs across the region, including Calistoga, St. Helena, Rutherford, Yountville, and the Oak Knoll District AVA. This blend creates a harmonious and expressive wine, capturing the essence of Napa's terroir. Comprising primarily Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with contributions from Silenus Estate Vineyards, the wine undergoes aging in a combination of French and American oak barrels. The result is a perfectly balanced wine, where the lush fruitiness integrates seamlessly with the oak, offering a rich and complex flavor profile that embodies the essence of Napa Valley winemaking.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Silenus Tyros Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied, fruit-driven, robust red wine.On the nose, it has intense aromas of black cherry, blackberry, bay leaf, and oak. The palate is juicy and fruit-driven, supported by silky tannins and flavors of ripened plum, black cherries, bay leaf and cedar wood. The finish is long and smooth, with a lingering note of oak. Enjoy this wine now or cellar it for years to come.
