It was aged for 24 months in 100% new French oak barrels. Deep garnet-purple colored, it needs a little coaxing before it charges out of the glass with bold expressions of crème de cassis, boysenberries and black cherry preserves plus suggestions of cast-iron pan, violets, allspice and sandalwood with a touch of fragrant earth. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is absolutely packed with muscular black fruit preserves flavors, beautifully supported by finely grained tannins and lovely freshness, finishing with loads of mineral and spice fireworks. \u003cstrong\u003eRP\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cb\u003e96+\u003c\/b\u003eVery flamboyant for the vintage with crushed blueberries, blackberries and flowers. Full and very rich with layers of fruit and tannins, which then pull back at the finish. Excellent wine with lots of polished tannins. Needs some time. Try after 2022. \u003cstrong\u003eJS 95\u003c\/strong\u003eThe 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Backus Vineyard is an attractive, mid-weight wine that can be enjoyed with minimal cellaring. There is lovely purity to the red-toned fruit and a good deal of grip too. The 2017 is a bit brighter and more nervous than Phelps fans are likely to expect, but that is just the personality of a year in which the fruit was picked a bit ahead of what might have been optimal ripeness. Blood orange, spice and mint accents add to that impression of vibrancy. All the 2017 needs is a few years in bottle to fully come together. Drinking window: 2025 - 2037","brand":"1.

On the palate, these dark fruit characteristics are harmonized with warm tones of redwood bark and baking spices. Plush, soft tannins and bright acidity enhance the length, complementing the rich fruit and savory undertones. A compelling tension infuses the wine with focused energy, promising it will express beautifully for years to come.Blend: 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Verdot, 2% Cabernet Franc, 2% MalbecA standout vintage for one of California’s most collectible cabernet sauvignons. The color is black throughout, but with a dark garnet rim. Gorgeous aromatics of spearmint, pencil shavings, toasted oak and dark plums, before a silky, fresh but firm texture takes over the palate and dusky blackcurrant, tobacco-leaf, rose-petal and cedar notes emerge and linger. Full-bodied and saturated with rounded, well-integrated tannins that emerge on the lingering finish and keep melting in the glass. It will drink best from 2028.\u003cstrong\u003e JS 93 pts\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"1.
