June 25, 2011 - CellarTracker Wisconsin June 2011; 6/24/2011-6/25/2011 (Madison, WI- various venues): Tasted non blind at a tasting that included 94-99 Insignia and 94-99 Quilceda Creek. Beautiful cassis and mint nose with more of the same on the palate along with a hint of cedar. Big tannins. Very, very long finish. A bit more Old World in style than the Insignias it was tasted along side. If you are lucky enough to have any of these, hands off for a few to several more years.
