Silky smooth, full bodied, velvety, exactly what you'd expect from an Insignia. Blueberry, blackberry, cocoa.

Small Tasting & Dinner with Friends: Double blind. Deep color. Chocolate, black raspberry, licorice and cherry cordial aromas. The palate follows the bouquet. Full-bodied, with fine but somewhat firm tannins and flavors of black fruit, plum, licorice and mocha. Lengthy finish. (R&D)

Very beautiful, lovely texture and feel. Nice tannins but not over bearing. Cocoa and red Berrys. Peppery bit lightly. Decanted 90 min, Could have decanted another hour at least. Light earthy nose. Very drinkable now probably go 10 or more years.

After a two hour decant, this wine evolved nicely exhibiting a dark purple color in the glass full of dark fruits on palate. Moderate tannin eased out by the smaller addition of merlot, malbec, and cabernet franc. Special dinner at Capital Grille in Naples, FL with CJD & KAP.
