Considering this is a full-bodied red, you'll be delighted that its tannin levels are not overly powerly, nor is the combination powerfully acidic. Grab a bottle for your loved one, or for someone celebrating something special - its the perfect option to sip by the fireside or hold off and drink years down the road.

On the Seventh Day of Wine Gifts...
Last night my sister and brother-law hosted their annual holiday extravaganza. Each year is filled with festive hors devours and flowing vino, so nonetheless I gained some inspiration for our next wine gift from one of the most special wines I think I've ever tasted...
On the seventh day of wine gifts...
The '05 Joseph Phelps Insignia from Napa Valley may only be labeled as simply a "dry red wine," but it combines memorable tastes of (predominately) cabernet sauvignon, merlot and petit verdot and retails for around $179/bottle. The blend exudes a brilliant darkened ruby color, and although big in flavor, is very smooth to the taking. You'll definitley taste combination of flavors, like black cherry, currant, blackberries, and even a little dose of pepper.
