Shafer Vineyards' vines are cultivated on volcanic slopes, benefiting from natural drainage and optimal sun exposure. The mineral-rich terroir allows the grapes to develop a unique aromatic complexity. Napa Valley's Mediterranean climate, with its warm days and cool nights, promotes slow and even ripening of the grapes, ensuring exceptional quality. Each plot is meticulously tended to reflect the distinctive character of the appellation, resulting in wines of great elegance and depth.
