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.
