1997 Joseph Phelps Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Item Number: 109
Time Left: CLOSED
Description
Rated #1 Wine of the Year by Wine Spectator Magazine!
With its opaque color, concentrated, jammy aromas of black cherry, herbs and mocha, the wine reveals satisfying flavors and a long, intricate finish.
Full black-currant aromas with some briar and dust. Blackberry fruit on the palate, but most of all lots of charred oak manifested as coffee and bitter chocolate. In golf, this would be a middle-of-the fairway drive, but without the distance. It’s fresh and well made. A "must have"!!
