1990 Joseph Phelps Insignia[California]
[Bordeaux/Meritage-style blend]
Posted by Mike P. on 2004-03-07 07:57:22 [Show TN in Text Format]
Chateau/Producer:Joseph Phelps
Wine Name:Insignia
Region:Napa Valley
Wine Score:89
Notes:Seriously dense, dark color showing little signs of age, a tannic monster that demonstrated more of a fruit-forward style but ultimately unimpressive. This was the first wine that to me, tasted like GRAPES! All I could think of was grape juice! It would be interesting to see whether this wine totally flops or achieves some identity with more time. (80 cab/10 merlot/10 cf)

Tasting Date:2003-11-20
Varietal:Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc
Additional Notes:This is from a special Insignia vertical wine tasting at Disneyworld/Epcot during their "Food and Wine Experience".
