WINE =======: 1999 Joseph Phelps Insignia Tasting Date: 2003-11-20 Varietal : Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc Score : 95 Region : Napa Valley Notes ----- Inky color; complex herbal notes; very young; not as extracted as the 97; tannins not balanced with flavor but the structure implies a backward wine that promises great beauty in time. In comparison to the 97, I'd say the 97 is drinkable right now; the 99 definitely needs more time and will probably put the 97 to shame after a few years. Additional Notes ---------------- This is from a special Insignia vertical wine tasting at Disneyworld/Epcot during their "Food and Wine Experience".
