Natalie's Score: 92/100

Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells 2020 is a full-bodied 89% Cabernet Sauvignon and 11% Syrah red wine blend with ripe dark berry, crushed raspberry, black cherry, savoury herbs, mint, dried tobacco leaf, cedar brush spice and meaty flavours fresh and concentrated on the palate. Tannins are velvety and rounded and it's absolutely delish now through 2028. Since 1967, the dedicated winemakers at Chateau Ste. Michelle have crafted some of the most spectacular wines in the world and this premier Cabernet Sauvignon is no exception.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: barbecued steak, grilled lamb chops, hamburger, pork tenderloin.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
