Detailed Description
A wonderful expression of regional character, the Silver Oak Alexander Valley Cabernet seamlessly blends bright fruit with savory notes and a graceful, flowing texture. Look for brushy aromas of sage and thyme embellishing a core of red fruit, rich with wild strawberry, raspberry, and just-picked plum. Energized by fresh acidity, the wine delivers its flavors in an elegant, medium body that—thanks to a lithe build and fine, tightly knit tannins—provides deceptive intensity.

Producer Information
Silver Oak was started in 1972 with a simple driving philosophy – to focus production on only one varietal, Cabernet Sauvignon. What’s more, they resolved to create a wine with a style all its own: not another hard, tannic red wine requiring years of aging to enjoy, but a wine of fully developed flavors and a velvety soft texture on the day it is released for sale.Silver Oak produces Cabernet Sauvignon from two appellations. Their Napa Valley derives its fruit from both owned and contracted vineyards, and is produced entirely at their Oakville winery. Beginning in 1994, small amounts of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot have been included in their Napa blend to add complexity and softness.
