The delicious Bench Cabernet Sauvignon from Knights Valley exudes a deep , dark purple color in the glass. The nose is vibrant with violets, huckleberry and a touch of vanilla spice. The palate is elegantly wound with dusty tannins and a supple, velvet texture. The long, seamless finish ebbs and flows with flavors of black currant, dark cocoa and black forest floor.

More info:

Exclusively sourced from Totem Ridge vineyard. Totem Ridge Vineyards were planted in 1991 under the guidance of the late Paul VanderSchalie, whose history as a viticulturist in Knight’s Valley spanned thirty years and included his influence with Beringer Vineyards, and later the planting for nearby Peter Michael Winery. The soil is a rich rocky volcanic loam, allowing it to sustain the vines without the need for irrigation. By summer’s end the vines experience just enough hardship to respond by creating the intense and distinctive flavors for which Knight’s Valley is known.
