Winemaker Ashley Hepworth describes 2014 as a year with a more balanced and consistent growing season than the 2013, a vintage in which the skins were thicker. As a result, Hepworth adds, she was able to leave the wines on the skins longer on 2014. Overextraction was the main risk in 2013, so Hepworth responded by lowering temperatures. I continue to be impressed with the level and consistency the Phelps wines deliver considering the scale on which these wines are made. Something that is all the more impressive considering that the Cabernets are made with 100% estate fruit.

This is a very strong set of new and upcoming releases from Joseph Phelps and winemaker Ashley Hepworth. The 2011s are strong, the 2012s capture the personality of the year, while the 2013s are shaping up to be superb.
