Trying this 1995 Hillside Select tonight! It smells amazing. Hoping it still tastes great.

    Wrong picture, that’s a 1995- oh, god damnit. I forgot I was old.

  3. Notes: leather and definitely aged. Oddly I’d still call it “hot” even after 30 years.

    Awesome! Its wonderful seeing these posts.

    Big fan of Shafer! I typically purchase well aged wines directly from the vineyard, storage and care typically is impeccable.

    Had a 46 year old spring mountain cab not too long ago, it was stunning.

    I had a ’91 Shafer (not Hillside) Cab last year. While it was great, I thought it showed too young.
