Shafer Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select - 2006 (750ml) Size:750ml spicy and refreshingly bitterThe 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select, which was just released, is a stunningly rich effort displaying notes of licorice, cassis, camphor and subtle toast along with a full bodied, powerful texture and richness. Very pure with surprisingly sweet tannins for a 2006, its long finish lasts over 40 seconds. It should drink well for 25+ years. 96 Points, Robert Parker
