SHAFER VINEYARDS - NAPA VALLEY
Shafer Vineyards started when John Shafer had a mid-life crisis and
left a 23-year publishing career to pursue his dream of winemaking.
They very quickly established themselves as a top producer in Napa
Valley. They are most noted for their Hillside Select, a 100% Cabernet
Sauvignon wine with intense ripe black fruit and a silky texture. It’s
nearly impossible to buy unless you are on the mailing list. In the words
of Robert Parker, "One of the world’s, as well as Napa’s, most profound
Cabernet Sauvignons".

ALTOS LAS HORMIGAS - MENDOZA
In 1995 the famous Tuscan winemaker Alberto Antonino visited the
burgeoning wine areas of South America and he established Altos Las
Hormigas. Instead of planting Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot as others
were doing, he planted Malbec. The wines have won many prestigious
awards including gold in the International Wine Challenge and have
featured in Wine Spectators top 100 wines on numerous occasions.
