Beringer Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Valley Reserve 2018 - First Bottle

Reviews

95 James Suckling -
“Baked-blueberry, spiced-cherry, praline and vanilla aromas. Some gravel and pine undertones. It’s full-bodied with firm, tight tannins. Creamy and supple with seamless fruit and hazelnut layers. Sleek and polished tannins.”
94 Jeb Dunnuck -
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Valley Reserve is a beauty and is all Cabernet brought up in 51% new French oak, which is on the lower end for this estate. Its deep purple color is followed by a classic, nicely structured Knights Valley Cabernet with lots of savory red and black fruits, loamy earth, tobacco leaf, and spice-driven aromas and flavors. With beautiful richness and mid-palate depth, ripe yet present tannins, and outstanding length, it’s going to drink nicely for 10-15 years.

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Valley Reserve is super expressive right out of the gate, which is unusual for a young Knights Valley wine. Crème de cassis, gravel, sage, menthol and licorice give the 2018 much of its dark, somber personality. The winemaking team has really pulled back on the extraction than in the past. The purity of the fruit is striking.

The critical acclaim on this release is just off the charts, take a look below. BUT – seriously, we have a few cases...at $34.95, this is a complete no-brainer - no other way to put it!

After several double-takes, and grabbing a few cases for ourselves for all-the-time drinking, we are blown away to offer this luxurious, lavish, rich cabernet from Beringer, from the excellent 2018 vintage at this superb price. What a score! We guarantee this is immensely satisfying, modern-styled, plush cabernet that you’ll love. Creamy and round and oh-so silky, with blue and blackberry, cassis, crushed gravel, mocha and chai spices, long, generous and lip-smackingly pure.

Beringer has been making wine since 1876 and is the oldest continually operating winery in the Valley. Extraordinary. The latest releases have been on a HUGE qualitative roll, and there’s no better time to grab a few more of the awesome ‘18! Another ridiculous home run Cabernet for Beringer! First come, first served!

PAIRING IDEAS: Ever had a zabuton? Here we call it a “Denver cut” and we made it this weekend. Reverse sear style - cover with S+P and put in 200 degree oven until about 110 with a meat probe, then sear it right before serving. THAT’S what we’d eat with this – and some old school A1 sauce on the side just to be crazy./p>

MUSIC SUGGESTIONS: Baby Shark remixes are fun...not. But “J.A.R.” by Green Day DOES get us up and rocking!

About the Producer

Beringer is known for establishing many 'firsts' as leaders in the wine industry. Beringer was of the first gravity-fed facilities and among the first to operate using hand-dug caves and cellars. They were also the first to give public tours in 1934, starting a Napa Valley hospitality tradition, and are the first and only winery to have both a red and a white wine named #1 Wine of the Year by Wine Spectator Magazine.
