Murphy-Goode’s Knights Valley Cab offers up a rich slice of northern Sonoma County flavor. The Knights Valley is a warm spot in Sonoma’s vast viticultural area that delivers ripe Cabernet grapes with regularity. This vintage of the Poker Knight exhibits luscious blackberry and cassis aromas, shows a bit of wood on the nose, and finishes with grippy tannins that suggest it might be best to lay this one down in the cellar for two to three years.
