6 Bottles Shafer One Point Five Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 750ml

Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, California Notes from the Winemaker True to its pedigree, 2022 One Point Five finds an elegant balance between liveliness and complexity with plush, round aromas of dark fruit and herbs followed by a mouth-filling blend of red plum, briar fruit, black cherry, coffee, sage, and cassis. You can almost taste the warm days and cool nights of this vintage that come wrapped in soft, ripe tannins and a long, complete finish. Blend: 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petite Verdot, 3% Merlot, 2% Malbec Reviews and Accolades 95 Points/Wine EnthusiastDripping-ripe plums and other dark fruits are spun through with aromas of cracked pine and pitch for a complex wine from this Napa icon. Succulent and mouthwatering with melting tannins and a persistent finish 93 Points/Robert Parker's Wine AdvocateWhile the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five includes some purchased fruit, the aim is for it to become fully estate once new plantings come into production. It's an incrementally richer, darker and more concentrated wine than Shafer's TD-9, with black cherries wrapped in a subtle cloak of almost ephemeral cedar and vanilla. Full-bodied and velvety textured, with a lingering finish. 93 Points/James SucklingThis bottling brings a slightly lighter aromatic touch to the Shafer reds, with its red cherry and strawberry aromas over a very full body. Broad, ripe and generous red fruit is wrapped in moderate tannins for good structure and some aging potential. 93 Points/Jeb DunnuckThe 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five is based on 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petite Verdot, 3% Merlot, and 2% Malbec that was bottled in May of 2024. Tons of juicy red and black berries, incense, new leather, and spicy notes all define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied, has a juicy, elegant mouthfeel, good richness, and outstanding length.
