Shafer Hillside Select Cabernet Sauvignon 1995
Item Code: US1-4085A95B
Wine Advocate 98: "Interestingly, the first thing that came to my mind in smelling the 1995 Shafer Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select was a relatively young vintage of Château Latour. Another fabulous effort, with notes of blackcurrants, graphite, a touch of vanilla, sweet tannin and a full-bodied, multidimensional mouthfeel, this vintage offers stunning aromatics of black fruits, earth, charcoal and lead pencil shavings. In addition, there is an intense, full-bodied mouthfeel, and a youthful vibrancy and vigor that are sensational. This is an amazingly young wine that’s coming up on 20 years of age and another great example of just how these best terroirs of Napa can produce incredibly long-lived Cabernet Sauvignons. It should last at least another two decades as well."
Wine Spectator 87: "Complex, if on the mature side of the spectrum. This is perfectly enjoyable, marked by rich earth, dried currant, herb and sage flavors along with some chewy tannins.--1995 California Cabernet retrospective. Drink now through 2008. 2,000 cases made."
