Widely celebrated as one of the finest Napa Valley growing seasons of the decade, 2018 delivered steady, moderate weather that allowed fruit to ripen with exceptional balance, structural intensity, and purity. Bottled in a magnum—the equivalent of two standard bottles—this larger format significantly slows the oxidation process, allowing the wine to age gracefully while developing unmatched complexity over time.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eOn the nose, the wine opens with an expressive core of dark plum, crème de cassis, and fresh blackberry, accented by subtle undertones of graphite, crushed bay leaf, espresso, and warm oak spice. The palate is rich and full-bodied, offering a plush core of dark berries balanced by vibrant acidity and polished, fine-grained tannins. Sourced from premier estate vineyard sites across St. Helena, Rutherford, Oakville, and Stags Leap District, this blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Malbec was aged for 18 months in French and American oak before bottling. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScore\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e96 points, James Suckling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Breakthru","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50509627785473,"sku":null,"price":174.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/0329\/0113\/files\/Joseph_Phelps_Cab_sauv_2018_1_5_liter.png?v=1791318678","url":"https:\/\/casewinelife.com\/zh\/products\/joseph-phelps-cabernet-sauvignon-2018","provider":"Case Wine Life Order Wine Online ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
