Wine Critic Review: "The 2020 Shannon Ridge High Elevation Cabernet Sauvignon has excellent energy and bites on the palate. This wine exhibits aromas and flavors of tart red fruits. Enjoy it with an oven-roasted Porchetta." - Wilfred Wong, Wine.com
Wine Folly: pg 88: This is the world's most popular wine, and it's a natural cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc. These wines are concentrated and age-worthy. The rich flavor and high tannin content make it a perfect combination to rich grilled meats, peppery sauces, and dishes with high flavor.
My Review: I got a strong scent of raspberry when sniffing this wine, I also got a scent of oak and blackberry. After drinking the wine, my mouth was quite dry. I definitely got a large taste of blackberry, but didn't taste the raspberry as much.
Would I Buy Again?: I would buy it again, especially when it is on sale like when I bought it.
