The 2021 Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon from Alexander Valley was harvested between 4 September and 8 October. The blend comprises 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Merlot and 1% each of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. After blending, it was barrel-aged for 24 months in American oak, 50% of which was new, followed by 14 months of bottle ageing prior to release. The wine is beautifully layered and highly fragrant, with remarkable precision and focus in this vintage. Medium- to full-bodied, it integrates the hallmark Silver Oak American spice character through cedarwood aromatics, elegant whispers of vanilla bean, and nuances of fresh fennel (from more refined American oak barrels crafted after precision trials of both seasoning and toasting from the American oak cooperage they own in Higbee, Missouri). Supple dark-cherry and blackberry fruit are framed by graphite minerality, violets and clove, building in richness and complexity across the palate. Suave and silken, the dark-berry fruit is wrapped in a tapestry of velvety tannins, gliding to a focused finish of brown baking spices and crisp, clean acidity.

Light yellow green, silver reflections. Delicate notes of elderflower, some passion fruit, a hint of white stone fruit. Elegant, juicy, full-bodied tropical fruit, fresh acidity, lingers well, salty finish, a versatile summer wine.

Both of these blocks are planted to Clone 2, a virus-free clone that came to FPS from Lodi. Block 7 was planted in 1975 and Block 22 in 1995. The 2022 Zinfandel Blocks 7 & 22 features floral, tea-like and even orange-like aromas, plus bold berry fruit. It's medium to full-bodied, silky-textured and open, with only the slightest hint of raisined fruit and a hint of French oak (one-third new barrels for 15 months). Finishing long and velvety, it's a fine Zin for drinking young, at a reasonable price.

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is terrific. Rich and forward, the 2022 is a bit extroverted for Frog's Leap, but all the elements are so well balanced. The Cabernet is typically in a blend from three ranches—Rossi, Chavez-Leeds and Red Barn—but in 2022, most of the wine is from Rossi and Chavez-Leeds, as Red Barn was mostly declassified because the fruit was compromised by the year. Ripe red cherry fruit, blood orange and spice notes convey an impression of exoticism that is super distinctive.

"Mixing 60% Kotsifali with 40% Syrah, the 2019 Kotsifali Syrah matured in a combination of French and American oak barrels. Farmyard notes mingle with cured meat and spicy traits. Underpinned by astringent tannins that take away some of the wine’s elegance, the 2019 needs more roundness, finesse and length in order to score higher." - Nicolas Greinacher.

The 2022 Muscat still crackles with a touch of reduction. Only then do honeysuckle and lemon appear, with subtle elderflower in the distance. The palate has far more elderflower than the nose, which is creamy, lemony and light. It's a scented wine with a creamy texture. It shows some pithiness, richer than usual, but dry and bright.
