Joseph Phelps Insignia 1999

[Nicklasss]

Finally, we did not open the 2000 Gruaud Larose, but JF's 1999 Insignia, that Is at a nice place now. Blackcurrants, rasberries, spices, oak, more red berries In The nose. In mouth, seem more powerful than the LaLa, but it was for a short time. Blackcurrant cream, rasberries, some herbs, oak vanilla, integrated, lush, tannic, long. A nice vintage but could not go over the LaLa In complexity or power. But a suerb wine too. TN: 93.
