Shafer Hillside Select 2014 1.5L is a magnum-format Cabernet Sauvignon from the Stags Leap District. CaskCartel lists the 2014 magnum at 15.5% ABV and reproduces Wine Advocate and James Suckling notes, while broader market sources describe the wine as pure, powerful and immaculately balanced.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Wine Advocate notes crushed black cherries, blackberries and black currants with charcoal, grilled herbs, black soil, chargrilled meat, pencil lead and violets.
- Palate: Very full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with layers of black fruit supported by firm grainy tannins and freshness.
- Finish: Long, deep and decadent in the critic notes, with power that still stays balanced and coherent.
Best For
Collectors seeking a later-release Hillside Select magnum and buyers focused on a well-documented mid-2010s Stags Leap District vintage.
