Absolutely gorgeous. Obviously displaying more tart cherry notes but has held up extremely well!

Really nice. Perfect condition. Tobacco, graphite, cranberries and a little bell pepper on the finish. 50% Cab, 30% Merlot and 20% Cab Franc. 13.8% ABV. Able to go another 5 yrs easily.

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.

This was a vertical of 38 vintages to celebrate Joseph Phelps Insignia 40th anniversary! My favorite vintage! It was a tie between this vintage and 74' but the 77' was the first time they used cab franc and that's what gave it a kick!
