Joseph Phelps Description

Winemaker Notes

A classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon with inviting violet, dark fruit, tobacco, subtle baking spice and earthy dried herb aromatics. The palate is filled with expressive black cherry, blackberry and dark plum, hints of spice box and sweet vanilla bean. A focused, concentrated wine with youthful energy and freshness nimbly balanced by supple tannin structure and finesse.

Blend: 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot, 1% Malbec

Critical Acclaim

Jeb Dunnuck

A year-in, year-out winner, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley should easily be an outstanding wine capable of evolving for two decades or so. Deep ruby/purple, with classy notes of cassis, blackberries, green tobacco, cedary herbs, and flowers, it's medium to full-bodied and has a wonderfully elegant, seamless texture, supple tannins, and outstanding length.
Range: 91-93

COMMENTARY: The 2019 Joseph Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon underscores how well this venerable Napa winery has handled this omnipresent grape variety. TASTING NOTES: This wine brings lovely and persistent aromas and flavors of black fruit, licorice, and oak to the fore. Serve it with grilled beef topped with diced shallots and slivered orange and red bell peppers. (Tasted: August 24, 2021, San Francisco, CA)

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is absolutely gorgeous. Succulent red cherry, red plum, mocha, spice and leather are front and center. Soft contours and silky plush tannins give the 2019 its tremendous immediacy and overall appeal. The 2019 is a superb wine in its peer group. Best after 2024.
