Its Napa Premier Week-end!

We just arrived in Napa and tasting wine at Shafer.
The 2005 Hillside Select has rich velvety fruit.
Lush texture with a solid backbone and still drinking well now.
The 2007 Red Shoulder Ranch Chardonnay has flavors of papaya, mango and cream.
There is a kiss of oak but not overwhelming with good acidity.
