Cassis and cedar open to violet and dried herbs, showing Oakville's mineral backbone. The tannins frame rather than dominate, creating a wine built for the cellar. Impressive structure with that classic Napa restraint. Drink 2026-2040.

Joseph Phelps built one of Napa's most recognizable estates from the ground up in the 1970s, and Insignia remains a benchmark Bordeaux-style blend five decades on.
