The 2011 Insignia is superb. Deep, layered and so expressive, Insignia is without question one of the wines of the year. Had I tasted it blind, I would have never guessed it is a wine from a challenging year. Still fresh and vibrant, the 2011 is such a pleasure to taste today. Hints of sage, tobacco, spice, menthol and pine add lovely aromatic top notes to a core of inky blue/purplish fruit. The 2011 has turned out even better than I had originally expected.

Most palatable of the $200+ Cab Queens. Still not really my cup of tea...I mean wine. Overripe fruit, massive oak, and limited aromas.

Beast. For a 2011, this is drinking quite nicely. Soft, subtle... Full of sex appeal.

Dark cassis, very herbaceous, leathery, crush dry rock, black olive, strong mineral finish. Higher % of Petit Verdot in this vintage.

Roasted coffee dominates nose, with nutmeg and cedar, bit of cassis popping through, some coffee soaked herbs....man! Way too oaky on palate, nothing to be tasted! Total $250 crap. 2011 vintage.

A little too much oak for the vintage. Not as good as usual.
