notes from ultra-premium tasting of mostly cab blends

[winoweenie]

Sounds like your kinda assignment there Newsie. Have had on several occassions all of the above wines with the exceprion of the Wolffer. Strangely my remembrance of them parallel yours with the exception of the 03 Insignia. After tasting this 3 times I found it not even close IMHO to the previous vintages and for the 1st time in 30 years didn't put any in the cellar. You must've gotten lucky on the bottle. Agree in spades on the Grange, but couldn't pull the trigger on the 429 per clatter here in Phoenix. When are you planning on getting an answering machinie-thingie?
