"One Point Five" stands for 1.5 generations and represents the history of the winery, which father John and son Doug have walked hand in hand.

The grapes are a blend from Hillside Estate Vineyard, located on the hill, and Borderline Vineyard, located on the flat land about two miles south.

The two different personalities are in perfect balance.

In 1972, the late John Shafer gave up a glamorous career in publishing to found the winery in the hillside neighborhood of Napa Valley's Stags Leap District.

John, who knew nothing about winemaking, began by reading every book on winemaking he could get his hands on in order to create his ideal wine.

Later, the eldest son, Doug Schafer, who studied oenology, and Elias Fernandez, who is now a talented winemaker, joined the company, and the quality of the wines has become unwavering.
