Reviews and Ratings

Erin De Santiago rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon season was a good one in Napa and the Joseph Phelps Cab is outstanding proof of that. The even growing season helped produce concentrated fruit flavors that resulted in a complex and beautiful dark purple colored Cab. There are dark fruits on the nose and the wine has a hint of blueberry on the palate, along with subtle notes of dark chocolate and spice. The 2007 Joseph Phelps Cab is really just starting to enter its period of peak drinking -- could be easily cellared for another 6-7 years.
David Roman rated this wine as 80/100 with the following review:

Tried Before but it seemed better before. Still very good. Recommendation from Marco.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
