Joseph Phelps Vineyards

Insignia Estate Grown Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1987

Has held up quite nicely considering sir Parker's initial 86 rating. Great earthiness, black fruit, tobacco and spice and completely smooth and lacking any tannins whatsoever. Was go time 5 years ago but still held up quite nicely - Carl's place 06-02-16 — 10 years ago

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend

9.1

1990: Corked, unfortunately. My mom had the best line, "It sure tastes better than it smells!" I recall what it was like on release, hard candy sweetness with a surprisingly light framework, particularly compared to both the '88 & '89 on release, and the crazy depth of the'90 Ch. Filholt Creme de tete, which was massively concentrated. This bottle still had oomph, yet wasn't all there. — 11 years ago

15.2% - how can you go wrong? Ha!

Not a bad wine - full bodied, on the sweeter side but not "jammy". Nice!

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1959

There are times when I am completely surprised by a wine. Low fill, destroyed capsule but the best bottle of Mouton that I have had pre 1982. This wine was singing. — 11 years ago
