Velvet Monster

Joseph Phelps Vineyards

Insignia Estate Grown Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1977

Huge. Phelps Insignia doesn't hit the ethereal heights of the best '70s Eisele's for me, but I find it more consistent. This '77 is a monster but still classic. — 11 years ago

I love this red wine. To me, it goes well with maybe chili or taco salad. — 13 years ago

Brooding monster the 2010, a first for me from Lokoya. Needed 2 hours to really express itself in my glass. Bold and rich with big fleshy tannins. Must try more! Thanks Larry. Chophouse group Monday — 11 years ago
