Hello my friends and fellow wine lovers! The wine tonight is: Joseph Phelps cabernet sauvignon 2019. Black pepper and blackberry pie fresh out if the oven on the nose. At 14.5% abv, the palate begins with a thick rich dark berry and vanilla explosion. Then comes the black pepper, spice and everything nice. There is oak, a hint of cedar, cigar box, and graphite. Wow!!!! This is followed by an amazing hint of dark chocolate and mor graphite. This is a very mineral rich wine.  The finish is so dry my tongue and lips won’t open.  I have to have another sip immediately.!!!! This is by far the best wine I’ve had this year!! — 10 months ago

We know Joseph Swan, so this wasn’t a tough choice. Smooth, only slightly fruit forward. Great whether we were having pasta with lamb or red fish. — a year ago

Svartpeppar, indisk långpeppar och granskog i näsan. Lång, relativt återhållen och kryddig smak men höga tanniner som gör sig bäst till mat med fett och sälta. Seriös spelare som dock kanske inte gör sig bäst att dricka som sällskapsvin med nuvarande ålder på nacken. — 6 years ago

Pure pleasure, vivacious, juicy, deeply textured and ripe. A completely different experience than LBT — 6 months ago
