"This is a big upgrade in finesse and clarity to such a popular, premium cabernet from Napa. It shows lots of blackberry, tar, cedar and oak-tree aromas that follow through to a full yet toned palate of fine, integrated tannins and a vivid finish. Owner David Duncan explained that the American oak they use in the wine for aging now comes 100% from their own barrel-making facilities, which tones down the vanilla character in the wine. Really impressive and delicious. It’s a joy to drink now, but can age."

Silver Oak had its beginnings with a simple handshake between two friends who shared a daring vision. Their main focus centres around a single grape variety, Cabernet Sauvignon, which is carefully aged exclusively in American oak barrels, designed to improve with age for many years. The journey started in a dairy barn in 1972, and since then, Silver Oak has gained international acclaim for their exceptional Napa Valley and Alexander Valley Cabernets.
In 2015, Silver Oak achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first North American winery to own and operate its own American oak cooperage, providing them with complete control over the barrel-making process. Presently, they cultivate over 400 acres of vineyards with a cutting-edge approach to viticulture. It's worth noting that all their estate vineyards are certified under California's Sustainable Winegrowing program.
It's important to remember that taste is subjective, and personal preferences play a significant role.
