Product Description
Joseph Phelps Insignia Red Wine 2022 750ml is one of Napa Valley’s most iconic and collectible Bordeaux-style blends—curated by blackbook for its pedigree, precision, and unmistakable sense of place. As the flagship wine of Joseph Phelps Vineyards, Insignia represents decades of meticulous vineyard selection and winemaking excellence.
The 2022 vintage showcases Insignia’s hallmark balance of power and elegance. Built primarily around Cabernet Sauvignon and complemented by carefully selected Bordeaux varietals, the wine delivers layered dark fruit, refined tannins, and seamless oak integration. It’s expressive on release yet structured for long-term aging, making it equally compelling now or years down the line.
At blackbook, we spotlight wines that define categories rather than follow trends. Insignia is exactly that—a benchmark Napa red that consistently earns its place among the world’s great wines.
