Product details
The 2014 Insignia is a total knockout. It begins with intense aromas of crème de cassis, coffee grounds and, pencil shavings and a touch of bell pepper. Layered and downright intoxicating, the wine reveals beautiful dark cherry, crème de cassis mocha flavors which lead into the monumental finish. The dark fruits are beautifully complimented by lovely underlying acidity making this powerful wine nearly impossible to resist right now. Try your best to give this absolutely sensational effort another year in the bottle.
