Shafer Cabernet Sauvignon 'One Point Five' 2019 - 375 ml

2019 One Point Five fills your glass with a generous, opulent Cabernet Sauvignon offering aromas and flavours of bright black cherry, red currant, cranberry, lavender, allspice, and crushed herbs. All this lush, vivid fruit is seamlessly brought together with ripe, cashmere-like tannins that promise years of beauty ahead with careful cellaring. 

96 Points - Jeb Dunnuck

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five is a gem of a wine that readers will love to have in their cellars. Sweet cassis, violets, and graphite define the bulk of the aromas, and it's a classic Napa Valley Cabernet on the palate with its full-bodied richness, velvety tannins, and opulent yet balanced style. A blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, and the rest Malbec and Petit Verdot raised 20 months in new barrels; it will keep for a solid two decades.

95 Points - James Suckling

Blackberries and blueberries with cherries, too. The palate is polished and refined with fresh, velvety tannins that provide tension and verve. It's long and vivid with polish and beauty. Drinkable now, but give it at least three or four years to soften. Better after 2026.

93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five is a blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 3% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple in colour, it delivers bright, vibrant notes of cassis, cedar, Marmite toast and black raspberries with hints of bay leaves and tilled earth in the background. The palate is full-bodied, rich and plush, featuring a lively backbone and a long finish that displays terrific purity and precision.
