Backus Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Information

Description

Backus Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a single‑vineyard red from Joseph Phelps made from grapes grown in the Backus Vineyard in the Oakville AVA of Napa Valley, California. Where blend data is published for specific vintages, the wine is primarily Cabernet Sauvignon with small percentages of Malbec and Petit Verdot; it typically shows firm tannic structure and black‑fruit character associated with hillside Cabernet. The wine has been released in select vintages and, in recent releases, appears in limited quantities often through the winery's channels.
