Winemaker Notes

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 age worthy 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.

Timeless Napa Valley is a single vineyard proprietary red blend from our Soda Canyon Ranch, tucked away in the southern benchlands of Napa Valley’s Vaca Mountains. Crafted by Silver Oak winemaker Nate Weis, this wine reveals a distinct and transparent expression of a singular Napa Valley vineyard with each vintage. We look forward to sharing the inaugural release from the 2017 vintage with you on September 1, 2020.
