A broad-based nose combines both upper and lower register fruit aromas

The results are sublime and generous

It feels as if it underwent a warmer or longer maceration than its peers

Joseph Phelps, Insignia other_regions A broad-based nose combines bothThe 2016 Insignia has turned out beautifully. Silky, layered and positively striking, the 2016 is magnificent. In this vintage, Insignia is especially silky, refined and understated, which is unusual for this wine that has often been more bombastic. Readers will have to be patient with the 2016, as it needs at least several years in bottle to be at its very best, but this is all finesse and class. Antonio Galloni
