Shafer Vineyards is one of the star wineries, not only in Napa Valley but in all of California. Family owned & operated for over 40 years, they produce some of the most critically aclaimed Cabernet Sauvignon in the world.
As part of their planting & viticultural approach Shafer adopted a fully sustainable farming methodology that has become a role model for the Stag’s Leap Wine District.
Robert Parker Jnr, The World’s foremost authority on wine has this to say about Shafer...
..."One of Napa's most prominent and respected wineries, Shafer is a poster boy for remarkable and consistent quality across the board. All of this is the work of the brilliant father and son team of John and Doug Shafer as well as their longterm winemaker and vineyard manager, Elias Fernandez.
With over 200-plus acres of estate holdings, and 55 acres surrounding their winery in Stags Leap, this is a winery that never seems to disappoint."

Made of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five Stags Leap is very deep purple-black in color and gives up intense Black Forest cake, black berry pie and blackcurrant cordial scents with hints of licorice, eucalyptus, espresso, tar and chargrilled beef. Full-bodied, it packs the black fruit preserves flavors and earthy accents into the palate, with a firm frame and great freshness on the finish. Drink 2019-2045

Another gorgeous wine in this range, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five is fabulous. Rich, powerful and explosive, the 2016 is endowed with real energy. Lavender, sage, menthol, licorice, spice and crème de cassis are some of the notes that build in this super-expressive, layered Cabernet from Shafer. The One Point Five isn't quite the screaming value it was a few years ago, but it is nevertheless terrific. Drink it over the next handful of years. Drink 2019 - 2026
