Highlights
Joseph Phelps Sauvignon Blanc St Helena 2024
Critcal Acclaim:
93 pts Jeb Dunnuck
Based on 100% Sauvignon Blanc (17% Musque clone) and barrel fermented without malolactic fermentation, the 2024 Sauvignon Blanc was aged 10 months in 31% new French oak cigar, puncheon, and white Bordeaux barrels. It's very classic, balanced, and complete, offering ripe citrus, subtle grapefruit, crushed stone, mint, and exotic flower nuances. Medium-bodied, it has a pure, clean profile, integrated acidity, and a clean finish. It's balanced, impeccably made, and well worth drinking over the coming 2-4 years. There are 2,380 cases produced. Drink 2025-2029.
93 pts Vinous
The 2024 Sauvignon Blanc offers up scents of lemon confit, slate, white pepper, mint and dried herbs, all framed by a gentle kiss of French oak. Lees-stirring builds the mid-palate beautifully. A dollop of Musqué clone adds aromatic lift and presence through to the finish.
