      Joseph Phelps Insignia Red Blend Napa Valley 2018

      Beyond the Label

      The 2018 Insignia opens with beautifully perfumed floral, dark fruit, anise and cigar box aromatics. A wine of depth, elegance and finesse, the palate is fresh and focused with creamy texture and layers of blackberry, mocha and black cherry. The seamless tannin structure and balance culminate in an uplifting, lengthy finish.

      Vintage Notes: The 2018 growing season in Napa Valley was marked by cool, mild weather. The cooler than normal spring delayed budbreak, bloom and veraison by two weeks compared to the previous five years. The mild weather patterns in August and September allowed for excellent overall phenological ripening and development of a complex aroma and flavor profile in the finished wines. Outstanding flavor development and color were key indicators of this exceptional vintage.

      VARIETAL TYPE: Red Blend (87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, 3% Malbec and 2% Cabernet Franc)

      APPELLATIONS: Napa Valley
