Cabernet Sauvignon is all that Silver Oak Cellars cares about. Always has, even back to the beginning in 1972. Sourcing from top properties to augment their estate vineyards, they produce a Napa, Alexander and single vineyard bottling. That's all. Their 2011 Alexander is blended prior to aging, then matures for two years in 50% new, 50% once used US barrels. A mono-classic.
