Joseph Phelps Insignia 2021 Vintage

SKU: JPIN21

Taste: Dark fruit characteristics are harmonized with warm tones of redwood bark and baking spices. Plush, soft tannins and bright acidity enhance the length, complementing the rich fruit and savory undertones.

Smell: Aromas of black cherry, hibiscus, and wild blackberry, subtly accented by hint of Tahitian vanilla.

Description: In 2021, the overall weather pattern was cooler than 2020 with bud break later than the five year average and bloom earlier than average. Summer brought more wind than we normally experience in Napa Valley creating a more mild overall season into fall that provided a long hang time prior to harvest. The 2021 vintage is marked by high quality fruit with exceptional color and tannin. The wine was aged for twenty-four months in 100% new French oak barrels before bottling.
