[QUOTE=Buck N Ham;1140703]Napa or Alexander Valley? I love'them both but if I had to pick it would be Napa.[/QUOTE]Silver Oak is Alexander Valley. May be a jewel in the rough.

[QUOTE=Hypo Luxa;1140903]Sorry, I meant to say "MY" Silver Oak is Alexander Valley, not that they are in general.[/QUOTE]Napa's are pricey but both SO vineyards produce excellent wines. I'd guess tho that your 1985 Alexander Valley would go for $140-150 for a regular bottle and triple for a magnum so keep it in safe.

Unfortunately I haven't stored it in optimal conditions, but I do think it's definitely still drinkable, but it's certainly not "collector" resale quality. Nothing extreme, but it's been in room temperature conditions for 23 years.
[QUOTE=Hypo Luxa;1140632]I have a 1985 Silver Oak Cabernet. Think it's still good? I've had it since '87![/QUOTE]As long as it was stored correctly, MMmmmm. In my past life, one of the wineries I use to sell for was Silver Oak. Was so spoiled, but love wine, well, who doesn't.
[QUOTE=Hypo Luxa;1140676]Well, you picked a winner with Silver Oak! I think one of the best overall reds in the entire US! It rivals french reds.[/QUOTE]Caymus, Heitz, can go on and on. Almost anything from the Rutherford Bench.

My suggestion is we have an "oldies" get together at a kb and you bring it to share with all forum members who show up and give up their logon names. LOL

Unless the cork dried out it should be OK. In your case I would drink it soon, but have a reserve bottle if you have company.
Cheers!

Go AMP and then finish off the night going Downtown. Then, go straight to the airport and catch a flight to Philippines, then a domestic flight to Thailand, then Vietnam, Japan and China. Fly back home and go back work.
So I went Vegas last month with my buddy, and I forgot to bring my prepaid phone. Sucked had to spend money at Walgreens to get another phone. My buddy just says to use google voice, so the number doesn't trace to you. I don't know, because doesn't Google voice still calls your own cell? What you guys think? Plus, hey didn't have 808 numbers when I tried signing up.
How many of you guys use a prepaid even?
