We recently upgraded this soap to 5.5 ounces and added kaolin clay to the recipe, which gives it even more of a silky lather. It has the same great sent — a complex blend of aged wine, lilac, vanilla, violets and lilies — and reminds us of our time in Oakville, CA (our favorite Napa Valley wine region known for its Cabs).

Description
Why Oakville soap?
Oakville is a beautiful, small town in the heart of Napa Valley and home to many well-known wineries, including Robert Mondavi, Groth, Silver Oak and Opus One. In fact, 25 wineries and over 5,000 acres of vineyard are located in Oakville.
In Oakville, the air is floral fresh and the wine is velvety smooth…which perfectly describes this wonderful bar of soap.
It mimics the smooth finish of a fine wine
Along with the same natural moisturizing oils found in our other soaps, this one also includes Tussah silk, kaolin clay and shea butter. The combination of each makes the soap’s lather extra silky and smooth. Made from silk worms, Tussah silk has a cotton-like texture. By melting it into the oils and lye before the soap saponifies, the silk adds a velvety feel. Kaolin clay not only enhances the lather but also helps the fragrance last longer. Shea butter, which is high in fatty acids and vitamins, adds moisture and helps make a harder bar of soap that lasts longer.
It smells floral-infused
The scent of this carefully-crafted soap has many inviting characteristics, and similar to wine, the interpretation will be unique to each individual. Some may identify notes of lilies and lilac while others may pick up violets, vanilla or grape.
We like to describe it as floral-infused with a smooth finish, just like a refreshing glass of wine from our favorite winery in Napa.
No matter what notes come to mind when using this soap, we promise you that the overall pleasant aroma will leave you wanting more.
