Founded in 1972 by Ray Duncan and Justin Meyer, Silver Oak has built its reputation on crafting age-worthy, oak aged Cabernets that continue to define a distinct Californian identity.

Silver Oak Alexander Valley 1996 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine exhibits notes of red cherry, raspberry, and blackcurrant, with underlying hints of vanilla and cedar, complemented by subtle floral characteristics. Producer note on the 1996 tasted in 2021 “This Cabernet shows signs of being a big, bruising wine in its youth - but is currently in a period of balance between youthful and developed aromas. Decanting is suggested due to light sediment. Enjoy now through 2027”

87 Vinous
Good deep red-ruby. Ripe aromas of cherry, dark chocolate, tar and mint. Less dense than the '97 but shows the baby fat of the vintage. But doesn't have quite as much flavor development as the '97. Finishes with good length and slightly green tannins.
