Dense and brooding, with cassis, mocha, and graphite minerality showing Oakville's gravelly intensity. The oak feels purposeful rather than decorative, adding spice and structure to the concentrated fruit. Powerful tannins anchor the long finish. Needs time to unwind. Drink 2028-2048.

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.
