Critics Scores

ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE
97

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Composed of 87 Cabernet Sauvignon, 9 Petit Verdot, 2 Malbec and 2 Cabernet Franc coming from six vineyards and reared for 24 months in 100 new French oak, the 2014 Insignia Proprietary Red Wine has a deep garnet-purple color and nose of crushed blackberries and fresh blackcurrants with touches of cigar box, sandalwood, dried lavender, beef drippings and mocha plus a waft of wild thyme. Medium to full-bodied and incredibly elegant and fine in the mouth, the lively fruit is well structured by grainy tannins and seamless acid, finishing long and earthy.

JAMES SUCKLING

James Suckling

The blackberry, dark-chocolate and walnut aromas are persuasive. Full body, a dense and fruity center palate and beautiful depth and intensity. The tannin texture is exceptional. Great wine. Drink in 2020 and onwards.

WINE ENTHUSIAST

Wine Enthusiast

This fine vintage of Insignia combines 87 Cabernet Sauvignon with 9 Petit Verdot, 2 Malbec and 2 Cabernet Franc. Soft, supple and seamless, it offers rich but balanced cassis and milk chocolate flavors, with supportive and complementary oak. It should do well in the cellar and will be best from 2024–2034.
