2014 vintage is a stunner. Beautiful crystalline straw color, with crisp apple aromatics and ripe peach and lemon peel on the palette. Leesy and rich without any hint of heaviness. Great lifted finish. #phillipshill is on a roll. — 10 years ago

Rating 2014 a 96 for now so the scale has somewhere to go up once it gets some age. Aromatics hit the nose with power and went down nicely. This one will be great @Bruce Phillips scary good for being this young. Cheers! — 9 years ago
F'hell this was good! Am I a sell out rating it higher than Plymouth Gin? A little ice and tonic made for a perfect GGG&T — 10 years ago

Wow! Hard to believe this is a California wine. Major win for terroir here. Juice obviously coming from old vines that are respected completely in farming practice and transparent winemaking hands. Minerals are beautiful in this with a nice complexity and very well balanced fruit. Reminds me of cru Beaujolais and light terroir driven CdR blended. I feel privileged to have a few bottles and privileged to have this vision happening here in California! 👍🏼 — 10 years ago
Amazing quality for Bass Phillips entry level Pinot Noir. Nose with cherry/damp earth notes. Carrying thru to sour cherry on the palate. Good Pinot by any standards. 2010 vintage. Tasted again 29 January 2016. Notes as above. Always a pleasure to drink a Bass Phillip Pinot even if it is their 4th or 5th best cuvée. — 10 years ago
Now this is a good Zinfandel. 15 percent alcohol, but you cannot feel much.
Smooth and not too bold. Red fruit on the nose and longer spicy finish. Long legs out of the bottle.
I need to give it an hour and see what evolves. Long, spicy finish with medium tannins.

Sipping Fine Wine
Winemaker Joseph J. Wagner is a 4th generation winemaker from a family with farming and winemaking roots in the Napa Valley since 1906. Deep Ruby (darkest Pinot almost looks like a Cab) with aromas of ripe berries and spice notes. The palate shows rich black fruits, blackberries, plums and black cherries, vanilla spice, cedar and cacao. Rich soft tannins, firm acidity on lingering finish ending with mineral tones. Nice! — 8 years ago
