Tout a été dit et redit sur le Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select et le duo Doug Shafer et Elias Fernandez. Par contre un peu moins sur le Chardonnay Red Shoulder. Il provient du Red Shoulder Ranch dans le district de Carneros au nord de la vallée de Napa. Red Shoulder est une espèce d'épervier qu'on retrouve près du vignoble. Le 2021 est un vin achevé. La robe est jaune claire sans aucun signe de vieillissement. Le nez est complexe avec des notes de gingembre, de citron, de beurre et de vanille. En bouche le liquide est puissant, long, avec les mêmes saveurs qu'au nez avec du fruit de la passion en prime. L'alcool est un peu dérangent en bouche avec ses 14,9%. Ça se goûte ! — 19 days ago

Hanna Winery was founded in 1985 by Dr. Elias Hanna, a cardiac surgeon, who found a place to continue farming heritage of his upbringing in Syria & in the 70s he purchased 12 acres in the Russian River Valley now 600 acres are run by oldest daughter Christine. Straw color with aromas of stone fruits and citrus notes. Palate shows apple and pear flavors with creamy citrus notes. Medium finish ending with fruit, spice and mineral citrus character. Good value. — 2 years ago

Fruit forward and a great example of the varietals potential in a good year. I agree with Elias Fernandez on this one. — 3 years ago

Good but not great. Would get again but others are better for the price. Bright and lighter. Still some oak. — 3 years ago

Slightly carbonic but delicious. Ripening pineapple, white stone fruit and an unfiltered appearance… My friend Elias Fernandez at Shafer loves this one as well… @Paul T- Huntington Beach @Shay A @Stanley Barrios @Shauna Summers @Jim Trobaugh @Neal Schaffer @Ian Blackburn @Warren Sapp — 2 years ago
