Shafer Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon TD-9 Napa Valley 2022 sku_2465884-1 the palate is a bracing95pts Wine Enthusiast A full bodied while refined Cabernet Sauvignon, the TD9 cuve delivers the strength and generosity so characteristic of Shafer wine. Aromas and flavors of cassis, ripe blackberries and freshly cracked pine fill the mouth, leading into a lengthy and expressive finish of graphite and warming spices. 94pts Jeb Dunnuck So full bodied, broad and ripe tasting. It gives a mouthful of indulgent fruit flavors on an agreeable texture.
