Wine Advocate

Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select displays a deep garnet-purple color, bursting from the glass with scents of blueberry pie, crème de cassis, black cherry compote and chocolate box plus nuances of cedar chest, clove oil, lavender and menthol. The richly fruited, full-bodied palate has a lively skip in its step, featuring gorgeous ripe, velvety tannins and fantastic freshness to support all the spicy black fruit layers, finishing long and perfumed. An absolute triumph! -Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate

 

They call it “Hillside Select” because the vineyards grow on the most prized, indemand parcels of land in the renowned Stags Leap District: the hillside. Here, the rocky soils create perfect conditions for growing rich, complex, and elegant
Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. And even then, only the best-quality grapes are used for the wine. Then it’s aged for four long years, and when it comes out, we get to enjoy its purity and opulence. With such remarkable craftsmanship, it makes sense that 2018 Shafer Hillside Select has been so celebrated and collected around the world.
