2018 Shafer Hillside Select

One Napa’s  most sought after wine. 2018 marks the 40^th Anniversary of legendary Cab. The Paris Tasting of 1976 will forever be remembered as the landmark event that transformed the wine industry.  At this legendary contest, a blind tasting, a panel of top French wine experts shocked the industry by choosing unknown California wines over France’s best.  The region that defeated first growths Mouton Rothschild, Haut-Brion and Montrose was the great Stag’s Leap.  Now, over 40 years ago, the region continues to produce some of the most exceptional wine in the world.  Today’s offer is liquid gold and the pinnacle of Stag’s Leap, 2018 Shafer Hillside Select.  It is one of the most avidly hunted bottlings from Napa and we have a tiny allocation.  Act fast.
