Summary
The Joseph Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2014 is a regional blend primarily made of Cabernet Sauvignon (84%), complemented by Merlot (8%), Petit Verdot, Malbec, and Cabernet Franc. Sourced from esteemed estate vineyards in Stags Leap, Oakville, Rutherford, and St. Helena, this wine showcases a medium body with polished tannins and a complex flavor profile. Aromas of dark fruits such as blackcurrant and blackberry intertwine with notes of leather, cedar, and subtle spices like clove. Aged for 18 months in a mix of French and American oak, it achieves a well-rounded structure with a beautiful balance of acidity and a long, flavorful finish, marking it as a powerful and age-worthy Cabernet.
