Lovely mature aromas, tobacco, cigar box, a bit of structure still, not as lush as the '82 or '85, but long finish, works really well with the prime rib!! — 11 years ago

Classic claret. 89 and humming. Still needs years for tertiary flavors to emerge. Can't beat it with a rare prime rib in the background. — 9 years ago

As a lover of reds from the start, I love this wine. Aromas of Blackberries, cherries and spice. And flavors of plum, currants, and dry herbs
It's good to pair with steak, prime rib or pasta with a red sauce. — 10 years ago

Had with prime rib at Christmas dinner. Decanted 2 hours. Opened up and was quite tasty. Fine bouquet of round, lush Cabernet fruit. Holding up well but I will not be keeping the remaining 10 bottles for more than the next five years or so. — 10 years ago

Deep ruby color, earthy nose, light but flavorful taste. Slightly acid with a lightly dry finish. Should go well with grilled steaks or prime rib. — 11 years ago

Cassis, dark berries, and toasted baguette, a stunning compliment to smoked prime rib. Ridge is held to a different standard but rarely misses the mark. — 9 years ago

Xmas prime rib dinner. Started with the 01 Insignia. Excellent example of Napa fruit. Dark berries, anise, softened tannins with the age, a big wine. — 9 years ago
