Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Truly celebrate the tradition of Silver Oak and itsbrcommitment to quality with this collector's edition of the winery's Napa Valleybrcabernet sauvignon.
The 42-year-old winery made a namebrfor itself with a striking commitment producing the finest quality cabs thisbrside of the Atlantic — remarkable when every other winery seems more committedbrto the newest trend or blend than it is to well-crafted vino. While you willbrfind other varietals bearing the Silver Oak emblem, it's the cabs that we lovebrand Silver Oak offers two, one from its Napa Valley winery and the other frombrAlexander Valley. The winery's ongoing commitment to quality over cash flow showsbrin its refusal to release wines before they are ready to be uncorked, so thebrlatest vintage Silver Oak you can buy any given year will always be at leastbrfour years old — two years aging in barrels, two in bottles.
Explore the intricacies and delicatebrtouches that mark each vintage of Silver Oak's Napa Valley cab with thisbrcollector's edition, which includes the 2003 to 2008 releases. The winerybrmaintains a large stock of older vintages, suitably stored to be ready for sippingbrlater.
You can impress guests uncorkingbrone of these and rest assured that the cab, famous for being food-friendly,brwill pair well with whatever you're serving. Silver Oak's Napa Valley offers abrsmooth finish, much more delicate than the area's typical cabernet sauvignon.brWhile each year has its own distinct character, Silver Oak cabs all offer notesbrof dark berries paired with an earthy, smoky flavor that owes more than abrlittle to the quality time spent in American Oak barrels.
The wines, rated between 87 and 91braccording to Wine Enthusiast magazinebrupon release, have only aged and improved with time. So go ahead, uncork one ofbrthe six bottles that comes with this set and get ready to swirl, sniff, sip andbrenjoy!
