Saturday, January 1, 2022 - NYE tasting of 2016 Dominus, Harlan and Shafer Hillside select. All three were magnificent but the D edged out the others by a hair. The Harlan was second but a bit closed - expect it will develop over the years to give the D a run for its money. Shafer was the most fruit forward and the archetype of a napa cab. Absolutely delicious but perhaps not as integrated as the other two due to the powerful fruit.

It was an absolute blast and a privilege to try these three together. Oh what fun!
