Chateau St. Jean was founded in 1973 in Kenwood, Sonoma Valley, on a property first built in 1920 as a summer home for the Goff family; the chateau is listed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the winery earned early fame for its single-vineyard Chardonnays and its Cinq Cépages Bordeaux blend. The Knights Valley Cabernet Sauvignon draws from two primary vineyards in the warm, rugged Knights Valley AVA between Sonoma and Napa, where roughly 30-year-old vines grow at 500 to 1,400 feet on cobbly clay, sandy loam, and weathered sandstone. The blend is 96% Cabernet Sauvignon with 2% Malbec and 2% Merlot. After a three-day cold soak and fermentation with daily pump-overs, the wine completes malolactic fermentation in barrel and ages 16 months in 85% French and 15% American oak, 40% new. At 14.5% alcohol it shows black cherry, black currant, and dark chocolate aromas, then brambly blackberry and blueberry with cocoa and spice over velvety tannins. The winery suggests garlic-and-herb lamb chops or bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with goat cheese with this 750ml bottle. Vintages may vary; we ship the current release.
