and keep for 30+

but few of us will be able to wait that long to see how they taste

The prodigious 1997 Insignia (83% Cabernet Sauvignon

Potentially one of the most compelling wines of the vintage

it was bottled not long after the required time (around 3 years)

La Fleur de Gay - 1989 Damaged Label (750ml) Loire and keep for 30+Possibly the finest Fleur de Gay made, this rich, very large scaled, tannic wine has a compelling nose of cassis, licorice, white flowers, minerals, and other sorts of black fruits along with some subtle new oak. Full bodied, with great delineation, purity, and dazzling concentration and intensity, this is a fabulous example of a Fleur de Gay and a wine that seems capable of lasting at least another two decades. Anticipated maturity: Now 2020. Robert
