Mission Briefing
Codename:
Petite Eruption
Clay Shannon is a highly regarded grape grower, sheep farmer and organic pioneer with 1000+ acres in Lake County’s High Valley AVA. His Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah are great enough to take on $75 Napa Valley wines - and win. Today’s 2011 High Valley Petite Sirah has that profile down, but with a Euro-tuned muscle and spice that makes it soar beyond the Napa Valley.
At $30, this is a great wine. Today for only $14.99 it’s a ridiculous deal!
