A fabulous edition of the flagship Hillside Select Cabernet caps off a stunning set of 2018s at Shafer. Proprietor Doug Shafer and longtime winemaker Elias Fernandez continue to add finesse and refinement to these wines. That is evident from top to bottom. I imagine the 2017 Hillside might get lost a bit in all of the anticipation for the 2018, but that would be a mistake, as it is truly superb and a magnificent achievement for a year fraught with challenges.
