8.4

A nice Italian wine with a nice small bouquet and earthy smell. Small hints of spices and earth tones on the tongue with a short aftertaste of blackberry and cloves. A little tangy on the finish but fruity without being sweet. — 3 years ago

8.8

A really nice win if you like flavourful and bold reds. This Spanish wine is full of spice and a rounded taste that holds strong. No hints of sweetness on the aftertaste so pair appropriately with a flavourful meal. — 4 years ago

8.1

A very interesting aroma. A little woodsy smell to it, similar to bark. Quite tart, with a nice initial taste but not fruity. Not a lot of depth, pairs nicely with umami. — 4 years ago

8.4

Quite sweet with hints or almost a port. Cloves and blackberry with a little tartness. Smooth but still quite nice. Not as spicy or as bold as a California Cab Sav. Nice vintage. — 4 years ago

8.8

Fruity, a very smooth wine. Doesn’t hold but doesn’t have the depth with spicier food. A very well rounded and almost sweet taste to it. Hints of pepper and easy to enjoy. A velvety touch of goodness. — 4 years ago

Joseph Phelps Vineyards

Estate Grown St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

8.5

Very smooth, doesn’t seem initially with a lot of depth but it stands up very well to a steak. Hints of tobacco and smoke. Very well rounded and subtle with hints of spice. — 3 years ago

7.9

Has a nice richness but almost akin to a tomato paste. Would be a good pairing with a strong Italian meal but a little tart on its own. — 4 years ago

8.3

Hand harvested with 12 month in blended oak. A nice balanced and smooth wine. Not overly fragrant but nice with a little fruitiness. Not the depth of a cab sav, without being overly sweet. Not a bad table wine. — 4 years ago
