For all . noise made by the so-called "cult" Cabernet Sauvignons of Napa Valley, the Gold Standard continues to be Joseph Phelps Insignia.  Put plainly: it was and is the best of the lot, year in and year out, for over 30 years.  I got an email from Vinfolio touting it for $159.99 but, on closer inspection, it is available for $10 less, $149.99, the lowest price in the US of A, at The Wine House right here in the City of Angels.  You can get three of these for the price of a single bottle of Harlan...and it's BETTER.

Mr. Parker's 97-100 point rave review: "The 2007 Insignia (a 13,500-case blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, and 4% Petit Verdot) offers a seamless introduction to this flagship cuvee. Its inky/purple color is followed by aromas of creme de cassis, incense, crushed rocks, lead pencil shavings, cedar, and spice box. It possesses a massive, opulent mouthfeel, serious tannins, and no hard edges. This stunning effort should hit its peak in 5-8 years, and last 40 years. I would not be surprised to see it become the greatest Insignia to date and close in on a perfect score
