#AgedWineTuesday Here is a fabulous 99 point wine by Robert Parker. Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim. Great nose of blueberries, blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, earth, vanilla, Mediterranean spices, espresso, cola, light herbs, chocolates, tobacco and black pepper. Full bodied, smooth and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs. Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black cherries, figs, cedar, chocolates, vanilla, licorice, spices, tobacco, herbs, light earth, cola and peppercorn. Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries. This is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Napa Valley. Showing nice balance and a great mouthfeel. Round and rich. Elegant and smooth. This 22 year old still has a lot of power in it, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 10 years. Good right out of the bottle, and better after 2 hours of airtime. So soft and powerful, with a great nose. This is a gorgeous wine right now. A blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot and 3% Malbec. Aged in all new French oak barrels for 24 months. 13.9% alcohol by volume. 96 points. $250.

An absolutely stunning lunch from @joe leatherwood today. 1 sparkler, 2 whites, 5 reds and 1 dessert wine. All served blind. This was only one year off from the Blankiet of being the youngest wine on the table, but it seemed so much younger than that. Compared to the ‘97 Insignia on the table, similarities abounded. Baking spices, soft/bruised plum, blackberries, even some blue fruit peeking through. Oak was more noticeable and it was decidedly more tannic and dense from start to finish (even when it had been decanted for 8hrs). Very surprised (in a good way) that this is 18yr Old Napa Cab...no rush here. I called this mid-‘00s Napa Cab.

Sweet tobacco-infused and cherry-smoked bliss. Smoother than words allow. Peaking but should stay at apogee for decades.

Awesome 2001 Insignia given to me from a friend Matt! Thanks ! opened up immediately showing great black fruits and soft tannins that meld together perfectly. Had it with 8 people at Il Villagios Rest in Cherry Hill. I would say this wine is almost perfect! CB 99 Rating. WOW!
