Tasting notes
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Coach Insignia comes all from Calistoga. This solid, balanced, nicely textured wine is very much in the style of the 2018 vintage with its nicely focused, structured profile. Loads of spiced red and black currants, cedar wood, candied violets, and dried herb-like notes as well as a touch of chocolate emerge from the glass, and it offers firm yet ripe tannins, solid overall balance, and outstanding length. It can be enjoyed today, but I suspect 2-3 years of bottle age will do it well, and it should keep for 10-15 years after that.

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Coach Insignia is fabulous. Rich, exotic and explosive, the 2018 captures all the best qualities of the year. Inky dark red/purplish fruit, licorice, spice, lavender and pencil shavings all run through the 2018. The Coach Insignia is one of the classiest and most classic Cabernets in Calistoga. Readers who like old-school Cabernets will flip over the 2018.
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Coach Insignia is elegant, delicate and finessed, with lovely aromatic presence and terrific balance. In 2018 the Coach Insignia is wonderfully lifted, nuanced and classy, from start to finish. Bright red and purplish berry fruit, lavender, rose petal and spice are all beautifully lifted in this sensual, enticing Cabernet Sauvignon from Fisher.
