The 2008 Joseph Phelps Insignia is a remarkable example of Napa Valley excellence, showcasing the depth and complexity that have made this wine a benchmark for Bordeaux-style blends in the region. This vintage is primarily composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, with contributions from Petit Verdot, Merlot, and Malbec. It presents a deep, opaque ruby color and offers an enticing bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, cherries, and plums, complemented by notes of graphite, cedar, and dark chocolate. On the palate, its full-bodied and rich, with well-integrated tannins and a velvety texture. Flavors of black fruit, espresso, and subtle oak spice are layered and harmonious, leading to a lengthy, polished finish. This Insignia is a superbly crafted wine with the structure to age beautifully for years to come.
