Joseph Phelps Backus Cabernet Sauvignon le nez du cafe the grapes were sold to2008 V 97 The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Backus is a beautifully delineated wine endowed with tons of personality and sheer class. The wine comes alive in the glass, with crushed rose petals, dark raspberry jam, licorice and spices. There is an exotic element to the fruit that is highly appealing. Today the tannins are quite firm, suggesting the wine needs at least a few more years in the cellar. 2018 JD 97 Aromas of mint, dark berries and black olives
