Beringer Knights Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
This Cabernet is set each vintage as a Bordeaux blend, with soft and silky tannins and a plush, full mouth-feel setting it up for immediate enjoyment, although it’s built to age and develop further complexity. Aromas of dried herbs, cedar, clove and lavender join flavors of dark red fruit led by figs, black cherry, currants, boysenberry, huckleberry, raspberry, and evident oak spice are joined with more traditional Knights Valley tones of black olive, wild sage and mocha chocolate. Fine acidity and balance with an elegant structure lead to a lingering, memorable finish.
Critical Acclaim

Aromas of fresh blackcurrants, dark chocolate, roasted coffee and tobacco. It’s medium-to-full-bodied with firm, sleek tannins. Fresh and tight with a cool, stony finish. Try from 2022.

Many creme de cassis and plum-styled fruits emerge from the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Valley. It has medium-bodied richness, a charming, elegant texture, classic Cabernet chocolate, leafy herbs, and earthy notes, and a great finish. It’s another rock-solid, enjoyable, nicely textured Cabernet that’s well worth drinking over the coming 8-10 years.
