INSIDER DEAL! Save 47% on Highly Recommended Red Hills Cab

A balanced, tasty Cab with a deliciously tannic edge, the Steele Red Hills Cabernet Sauvignon is today's Insider Deal.

We love the wines of Lake County, California.

In our opinion it's one of the best spots in the state for Cabernet - and that's saying a lot. The lake, weather, elevations, volcanic soils and more all create extremely flavorful, expressive grapes. And even better, you typically don't have to pay a huge premium to get your hands on these wines (yet, anyway).

Today we have a wonderful example of Cabernet from Steele Wines, now owned by Shannon Family Wines, both of whom we've featured many times over the years. From a vineyard farmed by Andy Beckstoffer (of Napa fame) in the Red Hills AVA within Lake County, this $33 bottle spends 12 months in French oak barrels and has just 1 g/L of residual sugar.

With a very attractive and full aroma, balanced flavors, pleasing tannins and even a bit of a mineral note from those volcanic soils, you don't want to miss this one, especially with our giant discount that just about cuts the price of this wine in half!

For the next day you can get 4 bottles of the 2020 Steele Red Hills Cabernet Sauvignon for just $XX.95 ($XX.XX/bottle). That's a discount of XX%!

Our extremely affordable 2-day summer shipping is a flat $9.99 per order. (You'll never pay more than $9.99 shipping, no matter how many 4-packs you buy in one order.) We ship in heat protection and minimize the transit time to help keep your wine safe in the warmer weather. Orders will still ship 5-10 days after the conclusion of the offer. Read on for our full review.

This 4-pack deal is available to ship to the following states: AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, IA, ID, IL, MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MT, NC, ND, NM, NV, NY, OH, OR, PA, TN, TX, VA, VT, WA and WI. (These states are dependent on the individual licenses of the offering winery and are not representative of all our deals. Every deal can have different, sometimes more, sometimes less, states available.)

This limited time, winery direct offer ends Wednesday 7/19/2023 at noon (PT) unless it sells out sooner.

From the winery:

The grapes are pressed into stainless steel tank and undergo 2-3 week fermentation with an extended maceration to extract every ounce of flavor. This wine is laid down in French oak barrels to age for a year. This wine has a rich, fruit-forward elegance. A spicy fruit and berry core, backed up by soft tannins, makes it a nice glass of wine for casual sipping among friends.

Vineyards: The Red Hills appellation in Lake County is a fairly new AVA (American Viticultural Area). The iron-rich, red soil of Red Hills is laden with obsidian, a glassy black volcanic rock that glistens in the afternoon sun. Well-known Napa Valley grape grower Andy Beckstoffer bought up a piece of the Red Hills AVA, planting it in Cabernet Sauvignon and other Bordeaux varietals. We have been receiving clone 6 and clone 37 grapes from this vineyard since 2002.

Food Pairings: This classic Cabernet Sauvignon will pair wonderfully with any red meat. Try it with a spice-rubbed rib-eye steak or a rack of lamb.

The 2020 Steele Red Hills Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a very attractive aroma full of dark fruit, a little spice, cedar, vanilla and even a hint of a savory note.

Taking a sip reveals a balanced wine featuring similar flavors to the nose. Easy to drink and with a nice tannic edge to it, this is quite tasty and a really solid example of Cabernet. It gets even better with some air and like a lot of wines from this area it even has a bit of a mineral note from those volcanic soils.

It ends dry, quite long and grippy. If you like some tannins in your wine this is a good one. It was just as good on day 2.

Here's what people are saying about our Insider Deals:

"Hey Jon! You do great work. I've bought a bunch of the Insider Deals and probably 80% of the wine I drink comes from them. Great values! "

"Jon, this is a wonderful wine all around. You have become our go-to person for wonderful wines and wine values. Please keep up the excellent job that you're doing! Regards, a very satisfied customer. "

"I opened up our first bottle last weekend and was blown away. "

"Wow!! Just got my shipment. It is absolutely tremendous. "

"Hi Jon, Best thing I ever did is buy wine thru you...not been disappointed with any of them! Thank you SO MUCH!"

"Would you happen to be offering this one again anytime soon? I regret not buying more. This was exceptional!"

"I am seriously considering having the Insider Deals as my primary go-to. Why did I not do this sooner? Thank you"

"The only thing I have ever been disappointed in with an Insider Deal is that I didn't purchase more."

"I love this wine I bought from you!!!! Thanks for doing what do do!!!"

"This an absolutely amazing wine, Jon...You've outdone yourself!"

"Thanks Jon. We already drank all 6 of the first order so we were ecstatic to see you offering it again. My wife and I both love it."

"You are a man after my own heart. I have always looked for the best and least expensive wine and you just made it easier. Cheers!"

"Hi Jon, well, I did something people have warned about - bought 6 bottles and should have bought 12!"

"Have had nothing but great bottles since I started ordering your recommendations. Thanks so much! "

"We've gotten in on three of the deals and have been VERY happy with the value. I originally was going to do a wine club thing but the insider deal appeals to me much more."

"The shipping on the Insider Deals is another great part of the deal. We recently paid $27 to a winery in California to ship 6 bottles (same packaging as the insider deals)....yikes!"

"Just got my 6 bottles and having my first glass. WHY, WHY didn't I buy a case??!!"

"I really missed the boat by only getting four bottles of this offer last month. Should have bought least at a case."

"My wife and I have really enjoyed getting to know new wines (and better than we used to buy!)​ Thanks for what you do and providing this service!​"

"Jon - you have to stop offering all of these amazing deals. My self discipline is fading fast!!"

"I recently took advantage of your offer. So glad I did, and now sorry I did not buy more (like all those quotes on your website!)"

"The wine is outstanding. I am so glad I bought a case."

" I only drink Reverse Wine Snob wine, it actually doesn't make sense to buy from a store. You don't get anything interesting, unique, and full of value otherwise."

"Jon, I should have bought more! Delicious!!"

"I am a Certified Specialist of Wine. I love your deals. You pick great wines!! Kudos to you for getting us great deals!"

"Wish I would have ordered more!! It was great. Looking back, I wish I didn’t open it at our annual pool party. It’s gone. **Sob**"

"thanks for the deal...this wine is spectacular for $12.50/bottle. I am used to buying big, bold, young cabs or old vine zins and paying considerably more multiples of this price."

"Hi Jon, just had to let you know that I love this wine!!!! Thanks for doing what you do."

"I have purchased many times over the last several months and loved the wines!"

"Seriously amazing deal!!! I love a bold red, and Reverse Wine Snob delivered!!! Perfect for a rainy night!!"

"AMAZING!! Damn, I should have bought a CASE!!"

"WOW. Just... wow. Absolutely delicious. If I knew it was going to be this good, I would have bought a case... or two. This was dead-center in the sweet spot of what I like. Thank you!!"

"I have loved all my RWS deals, can't wait to get this one."

"I know that you don't need to have 'customers' email you every time they like a wine that you have suggested/rated, and I have enjoyed many of your recommendations. But this Tannat was spectacular! Wow! That was amazing!"

"I finally opened a bottle of this and it did not disappoint. Delicious!!!"

"Thanks for a great service! We’ve been loving your emails and wine deals!"

"This insider deal is a great wine!!! So glad I got it!!"

"My Insider Deal arrived just in time for my celebration tonight and it’s absolutely delicious! Cheers!"

"Wish I had doubled my order!"

"I've gotten quite a few of these and loved them all -- keep them coming!"

"Wow - this wine is amazing!!! Glad I have two more bottles of it!!"

"Bought a case wish I had purchased 2-3 cases. Fantastic buy for the price."
