The 2021 Shafer Hillside Select Cabernet Sauvignon shows deep, layered aromas of blackberry, black cherry, cassis, cedar, and a touch of dried floral notes.
On the palate, it’s full-bodied and richly textured, with concentrated dark fruit, plum, graphite, and hints of spice wrapped in firm, polished tannins. The wine has impressive depth and length, balancing power with freshness and a very refined, classic Napa structure. It feels in the top tier of Stags Leap District Cabernet, with the poise and age-worthiness collectors look for.
Serve with a ribeye, prime rib, or slow-braised short ribs.
