Lot Details

This producer needs no introduction, but we’ll sing its praises just for fun. When other California Cabernet producers went for greater ripeness and higher alcohol, seeking to appeal to Robert Parker’s palate, Silver Oak maintained its balanced, relatively low alcohol levels that first generated a loyal consumer following. Ray Twomey Duncan and Justin Meyer’s vision in 1972 has grown into the highly coveted Cabernets we all know and love.

The Alexander Valley bottling (always 100% Cabernet Sauvignon), is an amazing phenomenon: a capacity for aging as well as early drinkability. Stylistically consistent, these are wines that triumph over and over again. This case of the 2003, 2004, and 2008 vintages is a prize for all of you Silver Oak folks out there!
