Score 90/100 · Drink 1996-2004, Robert Parker, Aug 1996

The 1993 appears to be the finest Syrah Joseph Phelps has made under their Vin du Mistral series. It reveals a deep, thick-looking, purple color, a super-ripe, jammy nose of red and black fruits and spice. Gorgeously rich and opulent, with a layered texture, high glycerin, and extract, this silky, voluptuously-textured wine should drink well for 7-8 years. Tel. (707) 963-2745
