Shafer Vineyards is one of the star wineries, not only in Napa Valley but in all of California. Family-owned & operated for over 40 years, they produce some of the most critically acclaimed Cabernet Sauvignon in the world. As part of their planting & viticultural approach, Shafer adopted a fully sustainable farming methodology that has become a role model for the Stag’s Leap Wine District.

Robert Parker Jnr, The World’s foremost authority on wine has this to say about Shafer. "One of Napa's most prominent and respected wineries, Shafer is a poster boy for remarkable and consistent quality across the board. All of this is the work of the brilliant father and son team of John and Doug Shafer as well as their long-term winemaker and vineyard manager, Elias Fernandez. With over 200-plus acres of estate holdings, and 55 acres surrounding their winery in Stags Leap, this is a winery that never seems to disappoint."
