Silver Oak
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Silver Oak is a Cabernet Sauvignon-exclusive winery with facilities in both Alexander Valley and Napa Valley, California. Founded in 1972, the winery ages all of its wines exclusively in American oak barrels, a practice that sets it apart from most Napa-focused producers. The Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, available here across the 2013, 2017, 2019, and 2020 vintages, is typically released earlier and carries a more approachable structure. The Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, represented in the 2015, 2017, and 2019 vintages, draws from warmer valley-floor sites and receives a longer aging program before release, producing a denser, more age-worthy expression of the same varietal focus.
