			Winemaking Notes
			Our Reserve Knights Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is bursting with flavors of milk chocolate, ripe black cherry, plum, cola, and allspice. The wine is complex and alluring, with full body, elegant velvety tannins and a lingering finish of juicy black fruit, mocha, and toasty oak. Enjoy this wine now with a seared New York
sirloin and peppercorn sauce or your favorite assortment of cheese and charcuterie, or hold for a special occasion over the next 5-7 years.
		Production Notes
			The 2022 vintage was dry and mild. Rain from the previous autumn was light, and the new year was warm and dry with daytime highs up to 70°F in early spring. After a few light sprinkles in the late spring and early summer, the temperature climbed into the triple digits a few days in June, but the season was mild overall, with most summer days peaking around 85-90°F. The balance of moderately high daytime
temperatures and cool evenings yielded ideal flavor concentration and mild acidity. With all things in balance, we harvested our reserve block from the Knights Valley appellation on October 17th.
