HIGH ELEVATION CABERNET SAUVIGNON 750 ml

Discover the bold spirit of Shannon Ridge High Elevation Cabernet Sauvignon, a family-crafted gem from the rugged heights of Lake County's High Valley AVA. Since 2001, this dedicated operation has drawn from vineyards perched along the southeast mountain rims, where every row captures the raw essence of elevated terrain. Imagine sipping a wine born amid sweeping vistas: to the south, Clear Lake's shimmering blue expanse moderates the summer heat with steady breezes from 2,200 feet atop Terre Vermeille. Gaze west toward the shift from lava-strewn slopes to the valley's ancient alluvial soils, and north to the crisp gusts sweeping down from Snow Mountain and Mendocino National Forest peaks. This pristine, wilderness-framed setting infuses each bottle with unmistakable vitality.

The 2021 High Elevation Cabernet Sauvignon delivers reliable pleasure for any occasion. Upfront fruit bursts forward, yielding to layered depth in the middle before a gentle oak whisper lingers softly on the close. Its intense, enduring presence on the tongue highlights vivid blackberry notes in both scent and taste, earning a standout 91 points from Wilfred Wong. At 13.90% ABV and in a standard 750 ml bottle, this Cabernet Sauvignon stands as a dry, approachable red from California’s heartland.

Picture elevating your next meal with this everyday essential—its robust profile meshes seamlessly alongside a grilled ribeye, rich with marbling. Whether stocking your cellar or grabbing a go-to red, Shannon Ridge High Elevation Cabernet Sauvignon brings High Valley's dramatic backdrop straight to your glass. Secure yours at $25.99 and taste the elevation.
