Silver Oak is more than a winery—it’s a testament to resilience, bold vision, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. As one of Napa Valley’s most iconic Cabernet Sauvignon producers, we have set the standard for approachable luxury, crafting wines that are as refined as they are unforgettable. Silver Oak continues to be a symbol of achievement and prestige, embraced by those who appreciate true craftsmanship.

For over five decades, we’ve believed that “our best bottle is yet to come.” This unwavering commitment to quality has driven us to seek out the finest vineyard sites in Napa and Alexander Valley, build LEED Platinum Certified wineries, and invest in our own cooperage in Missouri—ensuring every barrel is 100% American oak and precisely toasted to complement our signature winemaking style.
