2017 Shafer One Point Five Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Shafer Winery is nearly 50 years old, and since father and son John and Doug Shafer team have worked together for over 35 years, John call refers to their history as "One Point Five" as opposed to "two generations." The One Point Five Cabernet is a well-known and consistent favorite crafted by winemaker Elias Fernandez, who has also worked with the Shafers for over 35 years. Antonio Galloni describes the wine as having “Super-ripe dark cherry, cloves, menthol, licorice, and earthy notes... (with a) distinctly dark, exotic feel (and is) plush and generous on the palate with sweet, silky tannins ...” Perfectly said.
