Clay Shannon Cabernet Sauvignon

As one of the most respected winemakers of California, Clay Shannon focuses on one main philosophy: grow the best fruit possible with fully sustainable practices.  And there's no doubt that he is producing fruit of impeccable quality.  With numerous accolades and awards under his belt, Shannon creates wonderfully distinctive wines at an unparalleled value.

For this selection, grapes from the hillside volcanic vineyards of Lake County are combined with fruit from Napa to create a truly incredible wine.

Aromas of raspberry and black cherry are met with hints of lavender and vanilla.  Rich, velvety flavors of blackcurrant and cocoa lead into a deliciously long finish of redcurrant and tobacco. It is full-bodied and smooth with well-balanced tannins.

“Sophisticated oak spices and ripe, bold flavors make a great combo in this full-bodied wine laced with lip-smacking, fine-grained tannins. It has power with polish, revealing layers of black cherry, black currant, cocoa, ginger, and graphite.”  – 93 Points, Wine Enthusiast
