Silver Oak Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 - 1.5 Litre Bottle

Product description

Family-owned for 50 years, Silver Oak produces Cabernets aged exclusively in American oak. Its exceptional, food-friendly wines are both drinkable upon release and worthy of cellaring for decades to come. Ray Duncan founded Silver Oak with Justin Meyer in 1972, and it’s now owned and operated by Ray’s sons, David and Tim, with a commitment to innovative and sustainable viticulture practices across its vineyard properties, winemaking facilities, tasting rooms and cooperage.

Ruby in color, the Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has notes of cassis, caramel, juniper, and pomegranate. Lifted and vibrant on the nose, this wine is fresh on the palate with a juice, fruit-forward core. Its silky mouthfeel will provide drinking pleasure through 2044 given proper cellaring conditions.

91 Points - Wilfred Wong

The Silver Oak Alexander Valley, one of California's top Cabernet Sauvignon producers in Sonoma County, has produced a rock-solid Cab in 2018. This wine shines with aromas and flavors of black fruit, licorice, and oak. With a shading of coconut nuances, this wine should pair nicely with skewered pork on a bed of sesame rice.
