One (1) 1.5L Magnum of the 2010 Joseph Phelps Insignia, Red Blend, Napa Valley
Blockbuster vintage of Insignia's Bordeaux blend from one of the most iconic wineries in Napa Valley. Very rare. Blend: 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot, 4% Merlot and 2% Malbec.
The 2010 Insignia has an incredibly inky hue with layers of perfumed plum, dark berries, bergamot, mocha and graphite aromas followed by hints of spice box. The texture on the palate is ultra-concentrated and silky with blackberry flavors and a touch of black pepper, cocoa and curry spices leading to the lush, lingering and focused finish.
"This is, as always, a gorgeous wine, rich, balanced and delicious. It shows classic Napa Valley ripeness, with blackberry jam, plum, dark chocolate and sweet oak flavors. Plush and velvety doesn't begin to do it justice. Despite its fabulous lushness, this is a wine to age. Depending on your taste, it will provide excellence from now until 2030." Wine Enthusiast [97 rating]
Wine has been stored in an off-site wine storage facility in Glendale, CA.
