2013 Shafer Vineyards One Point Five Cabernet Sauvignon

"A beautiful Cabernet that shows the style – and the quality – of this great vintage, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five offers a still lively ruby/purple hue to go with a smorgasbord-like array of blackcurrants, crème de cassis, truffle, cedarwood, tobacco, and spicy oak. All Cabernet Sauvignon brought up in new barrels, this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a plush, rounded texture, loads of ripe, velvety tannins, and one heck of a great finish. It blossoms with time in the glass and is just now at the early stages of its prime drink window." Jeb Dunnuck - 96 Points
