From a hillside overlooking the Oakville District, Phelps produces small quantities of their single vineyard Backus Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, which is aged in 100% new French Taransaud oak. The sensational 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Backus Vineyard is a muscular, highly-extracted, full-bodied effort that requires 3-4 years of cellaring. Although not very approachable, it displays great fruit intensity in its huge, thick, viscous flavors redolent with black currants, new saddle leather, spice box, and toasty oak. Long, powerful, and intense, it exhibits both sweet tannin and immense concentration. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2025.


TASTING NOTES: The 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Backus Vineyard (1,100 cases) exhibits a lush, concentrated fruit. The dense purple color is followed by coffee, black currant, and blueberry scents, and a full-bodied, super-concentrated, seamlessly-textured, massive Cabernet Sauvignon with tremendous intensity and persistence. Underneath all the glycerin, fruit, and concentration there is considerable tannin, but the 1997 will be accessible in its youth. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2025.Robert Parker. THE WINE ADVOCATE. 93/100.
