Shafer HS is an all time favorite of mine but I don't typically open a bottle within 10 years of release. This bottle illustrated why. It's still in its chrysalis--developing and building and gaining weight and shedding tannin. Just not ready even after hours in the decanter. — 8 years ago

Tart and little and heavy on merlot. It's like the little cutest girl in school. Definitely a type...just not mine.
To be fair, this is a well put together wine. — 9 years ago

2017 vintage. Very fragrant and floral. Little bit of stemmy herbal-ness going on in the nose. Red and purple flowers: hibiscus, lilac, violet, rose petals, raspberry, peach melba, wild strawberry, green tea, lavender, tarragon. Tastes a lot like a good cru Beaujolais. — 7 years ago

I'd get to drinking your 97's now. Good...great actually but beginning to lose a lot. Cork was quite soft on mine. Flavor...like California...but smoother ;-) — 10 years ago

Gorgeous perfume - I could smell this for hours. Medium weight on the palate with those trade mark silky tannins. Noticeable whole bunch influence. Coal River in Tasmania is hot right now for the production of top class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Interestingly the grapes are taken in refrigerated containers to the Adelaide Hills for vinification at Shaw and Smith. — 7 years ago

After opening a second bottle (first was corked) I was very pleased. This wine was delicious right from the first sip. Beautiful nose of red fruit with strawberry standing out. The wine kept opening throughout my meal at the post hotel in lake Louise. Palate has nice acidity with strawberry from the nose front and centre. Finish is very long with fine balance. Looking forward to trying mine from my cellar — 9 years ago

Preview of our new vintage to be released under the "Les Enfants Terribles" label. A huge leap from previous vintages. Round mouthfeel, honeysuckle, white peach and a hint of licorice spice on the finish with insane acidity. Wowww — 10 years ago

I enjoyed this #pinot it's very drinkable and enjoyable. It is #under$20 and has a great #qpr We had it with herb crusted chicken on a coal barbecue and it was a perfect pairing. Drink now and can age until 2017. — 10 years ago

This beautiful 2005 cab was an anniversary gift from a great friend of mine @Jeff Savigny The vintage is the year we got married. The nose is so complex and yet so subdued, it practically blew my mind. A nose full of roses, tobacco, dark fruit and licorice with a hint of molasses and vanilla. On the palate very dry, with a faint aged acidity, yet very rich and delicious. You can spend just as much time smelling this as drinking it. This was a near perfect wine and a great anniversary present! — 11 years ago
