A polished, medium- to full-bodied Cabernet, this leans into ripe black cherry, blackberry, and black plum, with added notes of cocoa, vanilla bean, and warm spice. It has a plush texture and fine-grained tannins, balanced by a savory, loamy mineral edge that keeps it from feeling too sweet or heavy. The style is structured and layered, with a long, focused finish that brings out blackcurrant, cedar, and a touch of dried herb. There’s a touch of Napa-like richness in the profile, but it keeps enough Knights Valley freshness and minerality to stay grounded.

Best with a grilled ribeye or braised short ribs.
