Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 🇺🇸
Big, Bold & Unapologetically Washington Cab

This isn't your average Cabernet. It's a full-throttle, flavor-packed ride through Washington's Columbia Valley. Crafted from 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Syrah, this wine showcases a lush texture and concentrated flavors of blackberry and black cherry. Aged for 24 months in 75% neutral French oak and 25% neutral American oak, it delivers a smooth, vanilla-soaked experience with hints of spice and chocolate.

🏆 92 Points – Owen Bargreen
"The 2021 Indian Wells was made with 84% Cabernet Sauvignon with the remainder Syrah. Stored in a combination of French and American oak, this is a delicious, full-bodied wine that shows roasted dates, espresso grounds, dark chocolate shavings, and shades of black licorice on the palate. Really good now, enjoy over the next six plus years to come."

🍷 Tasting Notes

• Color: Deep, rich ruby—like a velvet curtain at midnight.

• Nose: Ripe dark berries, vanilla, and a hint of mocha.

• Palate: Full-bodied and finessed. Think layers of dark fruit, a touch of mocha, and fine acidity holding it all together.

• Finish: Long, smooth, and just enough spice and dark chocolate to keep you coming back.

🍽️ Perfect Pairings

• Mains: Grilled ribeye, lamb chops, beef stew—anything with richness and depth.

• Cheese: Aged cheddar, Gouda, or blue cheese (for the bold-hearted).

• Dessert: Dark chocolate truffles, flourless chocolate cake, or blackberry cobbler.
