Silver Oak – Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon – Red – 2020:

 

Silver Oak: Alexander Valley’s Benchmark Cabernet Sauvignon

The Silver Oak Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon stands as a benchmark for premium Sonoma County winemaking. With a steadfast commitment to ageing in American oak-sourced from their very own cooperage-this Cabernet is renowned for its signature profile: a powerful, deeply flavoured wine that is ready to enjoy sooner than many of its counterparts, yet retains superb cellaring potential. It is a stunning expression of the Alexander Valley’s unique, fruit-forward character.

Tasting Notes

• Colour: A captivating, dense ruby core with purple hues at the rim.
• Nose: Complex and inviting, featuring concentrated aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry, cedarwood, and a distinctive smoky vanilla note from the American oak. Herbal and earthy hints add further intrigue.
• Palate: Full-bodied and rich, the palate is enveloped in juicy black fruit, cocoa, and a touch of black olive. Polished, fine-grained tannins provide an elegant structure, perfectly balanced by refreshing acidity.
• Finish: Exceptionally long and smooth, concluding with savoury spice and dark chocolate.

Food Pairing & Serving

A wine of this stature elevates any formal dining occasion. We strongly suggest decanting for an hour or two before serving.

• Serving Temperature: 16-18°C.
• Recommendation: An ideal wine for your Sunday Roast or a special celebration.
