Description
Joseph Phelps was one of the pioneers in Napa Valley in the early 1970s; an iconic figure whom Robert Parker called 'a leader, and one of the greats of the wine world.' The 2013 Innisfree was matured for 16 months in a combination of French and American oak and includes splashes of Malbec, Petit Verdot, Merlot and Cab Franc adding complexity. Expect an impressively balanced and structured wine showing ripe fig, cherry, plum, tobacco and baking spices.

Tasting Notes
Wonderfully complex aromas of smokehouse spices, blackcurrant jelly, dark cherry, blackberry, vanilla and campfire. Big, dense and powerful with a warmly spiced finish. Larger-than-life Napa Cab in its full glory. Pair with grilled herbed steaks or smoked brisket. (VINTAGES panel, June 2014)
