Tasted blind. Reddish tawny, translucent and old looking. Awesome nose. Notes of leather saddle, pencil lead, currants, cherry, soil, and some toasted hickory. All guessed 61 Bordeaux. This got better through the night and was at its best in the last glass. — 8 years ago

Beautiful garnet body. Very opulent nose, surprising for a wine of this age. Cedar, cigar and other secondary notes on the nose. This falls apart on the palate though. Good entry but hollow midpalate, medium finish. On the way down. Got a little better as the night went on. — 10 years ago

Great dinner, tasted the 79; 85; 90; 99; 04; 07; 13. Memorable night! Like most, I thought the '13 was fantastic. The '99 was my favorite, however, showing a little more attitude and personality from a vintage that challenged the winemaker in different ways than the '13. The '85 was also very good. The '79 was past prime, noticeably. — 10 years ago

Excellent bottle. The 01 is supposedly a better vintage but im not sure when it comes to this producer. Clear, day bright, garnet and orange brick like color, medium - concentration, orange/peach rim variation, slight sediment, low viscosity. Nose: sound, moderate intensity, stewed cherries/strawberries/raspberries, floral, spicy and lots of dill pickle and slight game. A mushroom note as well. Palate: dry, med- body, stewed plums over ripe cherries/strawberries, lilies, dill, vinegar, leather, button mushrooms, game, mulch with some cedar and coconut. Very complex. Med- tannins, medium alcohol, high acid, long finish. Between the 01 and the 98 its a tough choice of which one to put in the wine cooler to store. — 12 years ago

Ripe cassis, sweet roasted paprika, open, generous and utterly satisfying. A clear representative of NW-cabernet, but with a definite classical Old-World edge. Loved it. 95/100 — 12 years ago

Magnum 1991 Joseph Phelps Insignia CS. Dinner at T w neighbors. Drank alongside the '90 Latour out of magnum. We didn't decant this as long as the Latour and out of the gate, this wine was a little tight. However, by the end of dinner, this was the clear winner. Just held up and got better as the night progressed. — 10 years ago

9.2

Extremely complex and rich wine that explodes with lots of dark fruit, caramel, chocolate, licorice and eucalyptus on the palate. In some ways it almost takes on a Syrah like taste with interesting hints of roasted meats. Very nicely integrated but big and bold. Probably has a long cellar life if you can keep your hands off it! — 10 years ago

Lovely bright raspberry and blueberry fruit. Lots of zip and vigor. Still very young. Extremely clear and zesty. A ways ahead of it, but also, not one for the real long term. — 10 years ago

Wine of the night. This wine had EXCELLENT fruit, and showed NO VISIBLE SIGNS of decline. Great powerful blackberry. I was guessing 01 Stag's Leap or Rutherford. Turns out it was Caymus SS 01, but I was second guessing myself on the year because it was a very purple color into the decanter and showing well. The wine had great vanilla on the front, blackberry on the front, and a more youthful middle and finish with some herb. This wine has 10 years left in it no doubt. Whoever cut this one off at 2017 has no idea. This one literally showed no signs of decline whatsoever. Drink by date 2007 - 2030. — 10 years ago
