A visit to Shafer (Shafer Winery, Napa CA): Apparently this is only sold at the winery. They call it a Port, but no where on the bottle is that term used. Ruby in color, clear and bright. The nose is sweet raspberry. The palate matches with some heat. Fun and tasty, but no complexity. Its 100% Cab and 19% Fortified ABV.

Cream and very smooth. Perfect for after a heavy meal with a fine cigar. Sip it with cheese. Very fruity full bodied.

Nice and great to chocolate but a little alcoholic by itself. Fun wine though.
