Wine Enthusiast, 95 Points 

"Dripping-ripe plums and other dark fruits are spun through with aromas of cracked pine and pitch for a complex wine from this Napa icon. Succulent and mouthwatering with melting tannins and a persistent finish." 

James Suckling, 93 Points 

"This bottling brings a slightly lighter aromatic touch to the Shafer reds, with its red cherry and strawberry aromas over a very full body. Broad, ripe and generous red fruit is wrapped in moderate tannins for good structure and some aging potential." 

Jeb Dunnuck, 93 Points 

"The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five is based on 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petite Verdot, 3% Merlot, and 2% Malbec that was bottled in May of 2024. Tons of juicy red and black berries, incense, new leather, and spicy notes all define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied, has a juicy, elegant mouthfeel, good richness, and outstanding length." 

Wine Advocate, 93 Points 

"While the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon One Point Five includes some purchased fruit, the aim is for it to become fully estate once new plantings come into production. It's an incrementally richer, darker and more concentrated wine than Shafer's TD-9, with black cherries wrapped in a subtle cloak of almost ephemeral cedar and vanilla. Full-bodied and velvety textured, with a lingering finish." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"One Point Five is Shafer's signature Cabernet Sauvignon, reflecting the timeless elegance of top Napa Valley vineyards. This wine honors the founding partnership of John and Doug Shafer, who said they'd worked together so long theirs wasn't a second-generation story but a generation and a half."
