The access

The best way to Hillside Select — and the door to every part of Shafer.

Hillside Select has always been allocated to a small number of people. The membership is that allocation now — and the door to every part of the estate that opens with it.

01

First access. First pricing.

Hillside Select reaches members before the trade, the auction floor, or any restaurant that carries it — and for the first time in forty years, at member rates.

02

Small lot, library, and large formats.

Personal allocations twice a year. Sauvignon Blanc, single-vineyard Cabernets, magnums, back vintages — all at member pricing. Bottles the public never sees.

03

Wildfoote.

A private club within the twelve-bottle membership. Bottle service, library by the glass, two bookable rooms.

04

Sommelier concierge.

Acquisition of hard-to-find wines, cellar organization, curated additions to the cellar you are building.

Begin with a conversation.

Hillside is held over years. Hear from Elias, then talk to Jess.

Notes from Elias

Through the vintage.

Climate Cellar Vineyards Harvest

The winemaker who has made every Hillside Select since 1984. Members hear from Elias through the season — on the weather, the cellar, the life of the vines as the vintage takes shape.

Speak with Jess

About cadence, vintages, what to expect.

Jess has helped most current members make this choice. A short call sets the membership on the right footing.
