Beringer Knights Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016


Beringer Knights Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 (SKU 352583, $45.99 tax included, WS 89 pts.)
I have always enjoyed the Cabernet Sauvignon from Beringer's Knights Valley. The rating was usually not very high but it tasted like a reserve wine. I saw this on sale ($7 off until October 26, 2019) at the liquor store recently and decided to try it. When I opened the bottle, I was presented with a very warm nose of fruits. The body was full, the palate was filled with dark berries and the finish was medium long. It would definitely go well with a nice juicy steak. The 2015 vintage was rated at 92 points and was number 80 of Wine Spectator's Top 100 wines. There is no rating for the 2016 vintage yet. The liquor store website mistakenly put the wrong information with its description. The wine can easily be cellared for five to ten years. There is ample supply in the LDB stores.
