Erna Schein Tasting Notes
Dare we say, the Knock Out delivers a powerful 1 - 2 punch. Up front, this wine is big and bold with aromas of all spice and clove. Round 2: the mid-palate is thick with flavors of chocolate, blueberries, espresso and plum cake. This all rounds into a pretty finish of cedar and vanilla. Throw in the towel, and drink it 'til you hit the mat! 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot.

Wine Spectator
Intense and structured, with a mix of spicy currant, cedar, cigar box and dried berry fruit that's tightly wound, full-bodied and focused, ending with subtle hints of licorice and nutmeg. Drink now through 2017. —James Laube, 92 points

Wine Advocate
The 2006 Knock-Out (87% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13% Merlot; 350 cases produced) offers smoky, meaty, black currant, bay leaf, and foresty characteristics. Deep, rich, and full-bodied with elevated glycerin, heady alcohol, and a lusty, hedonistic finish, this attention-getting red should be consumed over the next 7-8 years. —Robert Parker, 92 points
