About this Item
A staple of Lake County for the last nearly 30 years, Steele Winery was founded by veteran winemaker Jed Steele in 1991. The winery has become known for producing a wide variety of wines that showcase the diverse terroirs of Northern California. Jed Steele's extensive experience in the wine industry, particularly with Kendall-Jackson, where he helped create the brand's famous Chardonnay, has greatly influenced the quality and reputation of Steele Wines.
Shannon Family of Wines purchased Steele in 2020 and has continued Jed’s practice of craftsmanship winemaking.
Fruit is sourced from the Clear Lake AVA in Lake County, California. The Clear Lake area is known for its volcanic soils, high elevations, and a warm climate, all of which contribute to the bold and concentrated flavours often found in wines from this region.

Critics Ratings
'Refreshingly fruity, with supple plum, black cherry and wild berry flavors that show some firmness on the finish. Best from 2001 through 2007.' - James Laube, Wine Spectator (Feb 2001)
