Pre-Arrival Sale

2006 Joseph Phelps Insignia

2006 Joseph Phelps Insignia Napa Valley
Pre-Arrival Price $159.99
"95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. Made in a dense, full-bodied, muscular style, it is less charming than the 2005, with high tannin, extract, and richness. The blackberry and cassis characteristics are accompanied by notions of damp earth, subtle oak, licorice, and forest floor. It, too will benefit from 3-4 years of bottle age, and should drink well for two decades or more."
-Rated 94-96/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
