Shafer makes it look so easy to produce these lush, massively textured Cabs. This baby has polished flavors of cassis and cherry so rich that they practically overwhelm the powerful tannins. It will certainly be succulent now with a juicy T-bone but is clearly a cellar candidate.

Packed with dense, rich flavors built around a core of spicy currant, blackberry, plum and chocolate, with touches of cedary oak, anise and nice earthy scents. Ample tannins, too, yet the finish persists with a strong show of flavors.

Ruby-red. Expressive aromas of currant, tobacco, flowers, espresso, cedar and sassafras. Sweet, smooth and suave, with spicy flavors of currant, sassafras and chocolatey oak. Nicely dense but accessible cabernet, finishing with ripe tannins and lingering sweetness. (ST)
