Steele Cabernet Sauvignon Red Hills Lake County

Steele Cabernet Sauvignon Red Hills Lake County

Wine Information
The Red Hills appellation in Lake County is a new AVA (American Viticultural Area). The iron-rich, red soil of Red Hills is laden with obsidian, a glassy black volcanic rock that glistens in the afternoon sun. Well known NapaValleygrape grower Andy Beckstoffer bought up a piece of the Red Hills AVA, planting it in Cabernet Sauvignon and other Bordeaux varietals with which he is very familiar. We have been receiving clone 6 and clone 37 grapes from Andy since 2002.
Tasting Notes
This wine has a rich, fruit-forward elegance. A spicy fruit and berry core backed up by soft tannins makes it a nice glass of wine for casual sipping among friends.
Food Pairing
This Cabernet Sauvignon would go well with a spice-rubbed rib eye steak or rack of lamb.
