Tasting note

2016 年的菲力普赤霞珠是納帕谷風土的完美表現。這款濃郁的葡萄酒擁有濃密的黑色水果、茴香、烘焙咖啡、熟藍莓、雪松盒和石墨的香氣。奶油般的質地和悠長的口感，伴隨著塵土氣息、烘焙香料、甜香草和新鮮無花果的味道。經過 18 個月的新舊法國和美國橡木桶陳釀，這款酒新鮮、集中，適合現在享用或陳年收藏。

The 2016 Joseph Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon is a masterful expression of Napa Valley's terroir.

Aged for 18 months in a combination of new and seasoned French and American oak barrels, this wine is fresh, focused, and perfect for enjoying now or cellaring for future enjoyment.
