The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five is such an elegant wine. Bright, red-toned fruit and effusive aromatics lend striking brilliance to a Cabernet that is gracious and light on its feet. The 2019 stands out for its freshness and red fruit profile. It is beautifully done. One Point Five remains one of Napa Valley's little hidden gems; a wine that is seldom talked about in a discussion of the very top bottlings, but a Cabernet that never disappoints.
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."
The Varietal Composition: 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 3% Malbec, 2% Petit Verdot with a Cooperage of 20 months in 100% new French oak barrels (Allier & Tronçais)
