Phelps
- Robert Parker: "Joseph Phelps was one of the great visionaries of Napa Valley. His legacy is one of extraordinary quality. He was one of the first to see the merit in blending, which his legendary Insignia, which first debuted in 1974, has proven year after year. It remains one of the world’s finest Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated blends. He also wasn’t content to just stay at home in Napa, but branched out with cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vineyards on the Sonoma Coast. Joe Phelps was a leader, and one of the greats of the wine world."
- Ashley Hepworth, Winemaker, Joseph Phelps Napa Valley: “The winemaker’s role is to ensure that the terroir and beauty of the vineyard in whichthe grapes are grown are expressed in the finished wine. At Joseph Phelps our winemaking philosophy is to createthe very best wine from the vintage we’ve been given,making sure that the wine is complex, balanced,and that it expresses the soul of the vineyard.”
