I used to run a wine tasting group. We once did a blind tasting of cabs which included a silver oak on the high end. All twelve of us picked barefoot as our first or second choice and all twelve ranked the silver oak dead last. Granted this was a long time ago but I still like a glass of bf now and then.
Rombauer also makes their reds with a little bit of sugar and I think they are excellent.
- sanedigital 5y agoI’ll agree with you that Silver Oak rates dead last. But “cheap” wines with residual sugar often outperform other wines in taste tests because the sugar throws the test. It’s hard to compete against the brain’s response to glucose!
- lisper 5y agoSure, but so what? If it tastes good, what difference does it make why it tastes good?
