95 Points

Thursday, October 19, 2023 - Cracking the whip; 10/16/2023-10/23/2023 (Eagan, MN): N: Rich and dark red fruits, and integrated deep earth. A ton of fruit.

P: Well integrated fruits with earth, easily glides across the palate. Still tons of fruit but almost too much.

Great integration and quite smooth. I’m sure that if I had this Insignia on its own, it would’ve been great. But having it next to the Haut-Brion, this came off as too much with the abundance of fruit this had.
