The 2021 vintage of our Knights Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a gorgeous and powerful, full-bodied red with a lovely structure, beautiful density, and classic approachability. The nose expresses bright red berry fruits with red cherry, ripe plum, and cassis, alongside lifted cherry blossom and lavender notes. On the palate, darker berry character shows through with blackcurrant and boysenberry, while traditional Knights Valley tones of wild lavender and dark chocolate are supported by earthy and savory notes of chaparral sage, potpourri, and leather, with subtle hints of graphite, black tea, and tobacco leaf. Warmer, spiced elements of vanilla, cinnamon, and almond husk also show through nicely, as a nod to the well- integrated oak. The higher diurnal temperature shifts of 2021 provided fresh, bright acidity, giving the wine vibrancy and depth, all leading to a balanced, mouthwatering finish with firm, fine-grained tannins that invite sip after sip. Built to age and develop further complexity over time, the wine is also incredibly enjoyable in its youth.

A mix of red and black fruits with lavender and fresh herbs followed by vanilla, blanched almonds and a hint of black ink and pencil lead. Full-bodied, firm and juicy tannins with good acidity backbone. Sound and harmonious wine with beautiful drinkability. Terrific quality. This needs two or three years to take the edge off it.
