2002 Joseph Phelps Insignia

"Rich flavors fan out, the way you hope for, coating the palate with layers of currant, fresh earth, mineral, cedar, tobacco, mocha, black licorice and espresso. The tannins are firm and the structure built for a longer haul. Very much in its infancy still at age 10, it finds that unusual bridge between dense Napa fruit and a Bordeaux build. *Ranked #1 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2005, Collectible*" Wine Spectator - 96 Points
