Winemaking Data:
Grapes were harvested between October 7-27, 2006 at an average 24.5 degree Brix, fermented in stainless steel tanks, then aged 24 months in 100% new French oak barrels from coopers Tarasaud, Dargaud Jaegle, Nadalie, Demptos, Marcel Cadet and Sylvan.
Winemaker Notes:
The opaque, linky color of the 2006 Insignia is followed by concentrated aromatics of lush black fruit, graphite, coffee, dark cocoa powder, licorice, and cola syrup. The dense flavors and balanced tannins integrate beautifully for a long, layered finish.
