Founded in 1972 by Ray Duncan and Justin Meyer, Silver Oak has built its reputation on crafting age-worthy Cabernets matured exclusively in American oak, defining a distinct Californian identity. The 2006 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon a blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot, is a complex and refined wine that develops beautifully in the glass to reveal multi-layered nuances of aromas. It has a dark ruby colour and an enticing nose of cassis, black truffles and violets. On the palate, the wine has an elegant attack and bursts with flavors of fresh forest fruit, potpourri and Asian spices. It has a long finish with smooth well-integrated tannins.

Vinous
Bright, deep red-ruby. Oak aromas of black cherry, coffee and graphite. Juicy, tight and firmly built, with black fruit flavors currently overshadowed by exotic oak tones. Shows a restrained sweetness but avoids the dryness of so many 2006 cabernets. Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2011
