RH Phillips Winery Tasting notes

January 20, 2011

RH Phillips, USA, Wine

RH Phillips Night Harvest Chardonnay NVRH Phillips Night Harvest Chardonnay NV

This Chardonnay is tropical with aromas of pineapple and guava, yet has a touch of light honeysuckle, vanilla, and toasted oak, which adds a sweetness to the bouquet of the wine. On the palate, this wine is rich in texture and perfectly balanced. The bright acidity contributes to citrus nuances and the richness of the wine is accentuated by hints of vanilla cream and lightly toasted oak.

RH Phillips Night Harvest Merlot NVRH Phillips Night Harvest Merlot NV

Ripe bing cherries and succulent red currants covered in a delicate vanilla cream sauce and topped with dark Belgian chocolate shavings. Sounds like dessert but don’t let the sweet aromas fool you…this wine is richly textured with supple tannins, and is bold enough to stand up to a rib eye, beef stew, or other hearty meat dishes.

RH Phillips Night Harvest Cabernet Sauvignon NVRH Phillips Night Harvest Cabernet Sauvignon NV

A medium-bodied Cabernet, fruit focused with aromas of blackberry, cranberry, and spice and accentuated by the tinderbox aromas of cedar and tobacco leaves. Oak aging adds a subtle vanilla sweetness to the palate and complements the black currant dried black cherries with just a touch of toastiness.
