Petit Verdot and Malbec. Drink now through 2023. 1,768 cases made."
Timeless Description
“2017 Timeless Napa Valley is a
harmonious wine that deftly balances elegant integration of both high acidity
and supple fruit to create a wine with ageworthy structure and character. Notes
of pomegranate and cherry on the nose are met by subtle aromas of wisteria,
licorice and mint. Carried by essences of rose, plum and tart red fruit, a
mouthwatering ripple of bright acidity meets delicate tannins and balancing,
savory flavors of minty balsam, cozy mulling spices and stewed black fruits on
the palate.
Timeless Napa Valley is a tribute
to Silver Oak co-founder Ray Duncan. Inspired by the song, Timeless, which his
son David (Silver Oak Proprietor) co-wrote for Ray’s 85th birthday, this new
single vineyard red wine embraces Ray’s entrepreneurial spirit and the lessons
he taught us. To never take ourselves or life too seriously. Celebrate! And
that true sustainability is about passing it on to the next generation.”
