It is produced in significant quantities (18,000-20,000 cases) for a wine of such quality. \n\nThe prodigious 1997 Insignia (83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, and 3% Petit-Verdot) lives up to its pre-bottling promise. Tasted on three separate occasions, every bottle has hit the bull's eye. The color is a saturated thick-looking blue\/purple. The nose offers up explosive aromas of jammy black fruits, licorice, Asian spices, vanillin, and cedar. Full-bodied as well as exceptionally pure and impressively endowed, this blockbuster yet surprisingly elegant wine cuts a brilliant swath across the palate. A seamless effort with beautifully integrated acidity, sweet tannin, and alcohol, it is still an infant, but can be drunk with considerable pleasure. Anticipated maturity: now-2025.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobert Parker - 96 points \u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Dick Beers","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":44468818870385,"sku":"135780","price":11279.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/cellar-us.com\/products\/phelps-insignia-1997-750ml-s8zqvs","provider":"CELLAR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
