Chateau/Producer: | Joseph Phelps | Wine Name: | Insignia | Region: | Napa Valley | Wine Score: | 95 | 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. | 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". | Source: | Joseph Phelps Vertical Tasting |
