Very smooth with an invite of pellets midway through. Excellent structure and finish. Surprised by the peppery taste — 8 years ago
One of the best wineries in Napa. Can be consumed now but would benefit for a few years aging as tannins are very firm and surround the fruit forward taste. Still amazing, especially after 30-45 min in a decanter — 8 years ago
Can't complain about this winery. I really prefer the ten vs southing. SMOOTH with nice hints of red cherrys. Some of the best pinots — 8 years ago
Starting to really the pinots from the Monterey and Santa Lucia highlands areas. A bit sweet but inviting and smooth. — 8 years ago
Absolutely stunning. Big fan of shafer and the hillsides and relentless selections. This 05 cab was supsiringky just as delicious and was up there with its big brothers. What a treat this was with the age. Brought the tannins down and refined the taste. Bunch of chocolates and mochas — 8 years ago
Dark inky purple wine that covers your wine glass, teeth, and palate. Absolutely delicious fruit forward wine that is a bit heavy in tannins but can soften up with age and air in a decanter. Another Shafer Special that has Elias Fernandez's finger prints all over it — 8 years ago
