Silver Oak Cellars, a producer of premium Cabernet Sauvignon, has partnered with the lifestyle brand Sunday Scaries to release a limited-edition holiday gift package. This collaboration pairs a bottle of Silver Oak's 2021 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon with a custom-engraved wooden case featuring humorous phrases associated with the Sunday Scaries brand — from slams laptop shut 'til January" and "Break in case of in-laws" to "This and no plans."
The collaboration between Silver Oak Cellars and Sunday Scaries is framed as an effort to merge the established tradition and quality of a luxury wine with contemporary cultural commentary and a more approachable, less formal sensibility. Thus, the boxed 2021 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is positioned as a collectible gift item that acknowledges both the celebratory and potentially stressful aspects of the holiday season.
