By all means, exceptional juice. I know that it’s a tiny winery and the production is limited, but it seems a little overhyped and priced. That being said, the 2014 was delicious. Big and bold, with nice tannins and and strong fruity body. — 7 years ago

Special meritage with nice big flavor. One of my favorite Napa Valley blends. I don’t know how or why, but palmehyer is one of my all time favorite wine makers — 7 years ago

Completely different from the isos we sell at the restaurant, the reserve is big and tastes very similar to Napa blends. Good wine though — 8 years ago

Though delicious and fruity, the 1990 is past its prime. The wine had an amazing aroma when opening, and the first sips were better than when it opened up. All in all, delicious and balanced. The fruit is still nice 28 years later. Compliments to Phelps, some of the best California wine in my opinion. — 7 years ago
