Silver Oak Alexander Valley 2019 is a masterful Cabernet Sauvignon crafted in the heart of Sonoma County, California. This wine reflects the rich, fertile soils and temperate climate of Alexander Valley, showcasing a vibrant and refined expression of the region. Its composition is a meticulous blend of 95.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, balanced with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and a touch of Malbec, creating a harmonious and layered profile.
Aged in American oak barrels sourced from Silver Oak's own cooperage, The Oak, the wine is infused with a symphony of flavors. Aromas of bay leaf and ripe dark berries give way to a palate graced by silky notes of blackberry, cassis, and hints of coconut and vanilla. The oak aging enhances the wine’s complexity, adding a velvety texture and subtle spice that lingers elegantly. This thoughtful approach to blending and barrel selection amplifies the inherent qualities of its vineyard origins without overpowering them.
Silver Oak Alexander Valley 2019 is best enjoyed decanted to allow its intricate layers to fully bloom. Perfect for savoring on its own or paired with hearty dishes like braised short ribs or roasted lamb, it is a timeless Cabernet Sauvignon that elevates any occasion.
