Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Vintage: 2007
Release Date: October - 2010
Appellation: Napa Valley

Lot Number: 92

Lot Description:
On a relatively flat bench at 650 feet, the Tierra Roja Block sits nestled between Jack & Jamie's Grove and the Redwood Grove in the lower J. Davies vineyards. In 1862, this stunning location was the first hillside vineyard planted in the Napa Valley. Replanted in 1997 with a mixture of Cabernet Sauvignon clones 4, 15 and 337, the fruit grown on this particularly rich, red ground is late ripening and densely flavored. Harvested on October 31, 2007, this Cabernet Sauvignon went through a 28-day extended maceration, and will be aged for 24 months in a medium-plus toast Taransaud Bordeaux barrel.

Joseph Phelps Vineyards

Cases: 10
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Vintage: 2007
Release Date: July - 2010
Appellation: Oakville, Napa Valley

Lot Number: 133

Lot Description:
This blend is from three different blocks in our Backus Vineyard in the eastern hills of Oakville. The main component is from the North Block planted in 1999, and the balance is from the South Block planted in 1975. This blend was created in February 2008 in a Taransaud V barrel and will continue to age in this barrel until bottling in 2010. The Taransaud V barrel is created from an ultra selection of oak from the Troncais Forest, aged five years, and is one of only a handful of these particular barrels crafted by Taransaud at their cooperage in Cognac. Expressive aromatics of dark fruits, graphite and cassis combined with a focused palate lends to the concentrated mineral characteristics and the balanced tannin structure of this wine. We are proud to offer this lot, which is a perfect expression of Oakville's terroir.
