Ratings on Delectable

Deep ruby and purple hues with magenta rim variation. Moderate extraction and heavy tearing. Nose offers sweet tobacco, cigar box, oak, cedar, leather, baking spices and candied black fruit. Soft and smooth tannins on the palate; palate is otherwise consistent with the nose. Lingering finish. ABV 15.3%. Vintage 2014. Happy Valentine’s Day to my Delectable friends! #stagsleapdistrict #napavalley #napavalleywine #shafer #shaferwine #onepointfiveshafer #californiacab #cabernetsauvignon

On the nose, slightly sweet dark fruits, burnt ambers, dark soil and decayed darks florals. One the palate, ruby fruits of; blackberries, dark cherries, black plum, strawberries and raspberries. The body is lean with grippy, silty, dark tannins, dark chocolate, mocha powder, wood shavings, dry stems, fresh red florals, cola, leathery, light touch of vanilla, good acidity with a dry finish. Don't open for 8-10 years. Photo tour of; the estate building & vines, Winemaker Elias Fernandez with Owner Doug Shafer, vineyard staff harvesting and their tasting area.

A terrific example of the vintage, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five delivers serious depth and intensity, but with relatively soft tannins for the year. Inky blue and purplish fruit, spices, mint and lavender flesh out in the glass. Succulent and fleshy, the One Point Five offers more near and medium-term accessibility than most 2013s.

Meh. Typical jammy flabby unbalanced cali cab. It’s not bad. But crazy it sells for $100+ per btl. It was a gift.
