DESC: Limited to 3 bottle purchase Joseph Phelps is the Cristal of Cabernet. The 2005 is what is known in the wine business as a short vintage. Normally this vineyard produces 45-60 thousand cases of this monumental wine. The 2005 vintage was limited to 12,500 cases. More than 75% of the vintage went to the Far East and Europe. We predict that by late fall of 2008 this wine will become scarce with prices rising quickly to the $200 or above price per bottle. This is a classic so buy now and your cellar and friends will thank you later. "Elegant and restrained (RP)" I don't think so. This is powerful, ruby deep homage to great wine making
