2005 Shafer Vineyards Hillside Select Cabernet Sauvignon

"This is a massive wall of ripe dark deep fruits, smoke, oak, licorice, chocolate and vanilla that starts off strong and keeps on going. This is definitively a full-throttle, palate-staining wine. There is a touch of heat in the finish." - 95/100, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
