Insignia is the flagship wine of Joseph Phelps. This is the first vintage that estate-grown grapes from new plantings in Las Rocas and the new plantings in Banca Dorada on the Rutherford Bench were blended together. The wine has deep berry and blackcurrant aromas and flavours, soft tannins, and a long, lush finish.

Innovation and Quality in Napa
Founded in 1973 and owned by Moët Hennessy since 2022, Joseph Phelps Vineyards is a winery celebrated for its commitment to crafting world-class, estate grown wines from Napa Valley and the Sonoma Coast. Joe Phelps was a building contractor from Colorado who began investing in Napa Valley vineyards in the early 1970s, producing the first vintage of his now-famous "Insignia" in 1974 - one of the first super premium Bordeaux blends from Napa.
For 15 years the winemaker was Ashley Hepworth, who initially joined Joseph Phelps in 1999 as an intern. Alongside Insignia, the team also make a number of varietal wines with the Freestone Vineyards Chardonnay being a notable high point.
