Beringer's 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Valley is the first to include fruit from all three of the company's Knights Valley properties. Marked by youthful vanilla and gentle cedary notions over a base of ripe cherries and cassis, this medium to full-bodied effort comes across as being a bit edgy and tannic still, finishing bright and tart.

Offers a mix of savory, singed vanilla and mulled cherry and plum fruit flavors, ending with a cedary twinge. Drink now through 2023. 160,580 cases made.??–JM??Region: California / Sonoma / Knights Valley Select to Add

There were more than 160,000 cases of the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Valley produced, so it's good to see that it is performing well. There's an attractive floral top note that adds a touch of complexity to the cassis fruit, while the medium to full-bodied palate is silky and even elegant. It's a better wine—and far better value—than many entry-level wines sourced from Napa Valley.

Soft-edged, with crushed plum and warmed raspberry compote flavors taking the lead at first, though they're quickly caught by a swath of toasty vanilla that coats the finish. For fans of the style.

Soft and generous in feel, with creamed blackberry and black cherry fruit gliding along, laced with toast notes and backed by embers of grilled savory on the finish. Drink now through 2024. 82,750 cases made.??–JM??Region: California / Sonoma / Knights Valley Select to Add
