Nectar maniacs can get a fix with two wines from the Phelps portfolio. The 1995 Delice du Semillon is a powerful Sauternes-like wine with gobs of buttery pineapple-like fruit intermixed with toasty new oak. Unctuously-textured, thick, and sweet, it possesses enough acidity to bring everything into focus. These wines have a tendency to age well, and this offering should easily last for a decade. Tel.
