"Benjamin Silver is an unusually talented winemaker....As he has no vineyards of his own, he is necessarily dependent upon others for his grapes. Yet what he does with those grapes is impressive. Even a Nebbiolo, a grape no one has succeeded with in California so far, came closer to hitting the mark than any other I've tried. When he can obtain choice fruit, Benjamin Silver creates superb wines."
