R.h. Phillips - Cabernet Sauvignon California Toasted Head 2022 is produced in California with fruit sourced from vineyards selected for balance and varietal clarity. Hand harvesting and small‑lot vinification allow careful control of fermentations, with an emphasis on clean extraction and preservation of fruit integrity.

Fermentation is conducted in stainless steel or small open‑top tanks, depending on the varietal, with pump‑overs or punch‑downs managed to achieve structure without harshness. Aging takes place in a mix of French and American oak barrels, where time in wood refines texture and brings added complexity without masking the grape’s natural profile.

Each vintage reflects a commitment to sustainable vineyard practices and precise cellar work, yielding a wine that stands as a faithful expression of both varietal and region.

R.H. Phillips

R.H. Phillips is a brand of California wine that was founded by brothers John and Karl Giguiere. The brand's name is a tribute to their grandfather, Roy H. Phillips, a farmer in the Dunnigan Hills of Yolo County, California. The Giguiere brothers were pioneers in establishing vineyards in this then-uncharted wine region, which is located in a remote area northwest of Sacramento.

The brand gained a reputation for its approachable and well-made wines, particularly its Chardonnay and other varietals, which were known for their consistent quality and value. R.H. Phillips was a key player in showcasing the potential of the Dunnigan Hills as a wine-growing region, with its Mediterranean climate and diurnal temperature shifts that are beneficial for grape cultivation.

In the early 2000s, the R.H. Phillips winery was acquired by a larger company, and production of the wines was eventually moved. While the original physical winery in the Dunnigan Hills is no longer in operation, the R.H. Phillips brand continues to exist as part of a larger wine portfolio.
