Silver Oak Alexander Valley Cabernet
Product Description
The Alexander Valley, a blend of wine from several selected vineyards in the appellation, is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. The vineyard lots were blended and the wine was transferred to 50% new and 50% once-used American oak barrels for aging. Blending prior to barreling allows a balance of the wine’s natural elements, such as fruit and tannin, before they are influenced by oak. The wine was then aged in barrel for approximately 25 months and another 15 months in bottle to harmonize its components before release.

| Tasting note | The Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon beautifully expresses the full aromatic ripeness of this exemplary vintage. It is full bodied and yet refined, and consistent in its colour, aroma, palate and finish. It has a dark garnet color and a nose of black cherry, clove, cinnamon, lavender and licorice. It is seamless on the palate with a solid core of berry fruit, velvety tannins and excellent length. |
