Joseph Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Napa Valley, California, United StatesThe nose is immediately appealing mixing dark fruits, cedar/cigar box and hints of garam masala. The lovely balance and a fresh attack with measured levels of ripe, black fruit flecked with spice and licorice notes. Don’t be fooled by its smooth textures there is plenty of tannin to warrant further bottle ageing but if you have to drink it now think grilled beef or lamb.Tasted: 15 December 2015Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
