Score 92/100 · Drink 2006-2009, Robert Parker, Dec 2006

Production of the non-malolactic, full-throttle Red Shoulder Ranch Chardonnay ranges between 4,500-6,000 cases per year. The exceptional 2004 exhibits plenty of honeysuckle, tropical fruit, and citrus oil characteristics, a subtle touch of smoky oak, zesty acidity, and a full, fleshy palate. Enjoy it over the next several years. Tel. (707) 944-2877; Fax (707) 944-9454

Shafer Vineyards

The site of Shafer has been around since 1880, and grapes continued to be grown here, even during prohibition. It is said that some wine was made here during that time. In 1972, John Shafer bought the property in the Stag’s Leap district, he immediately began planting the Cabernet on the hillside.
