Taylor Wine Company was founded in 1880 with a seven-acre vineyard overlooking Keuka Lake in the Finger Lakes region of New York State. After making Ports and Sherries for over 100 years, they continue their fine tradition with a line of dessert wines called "Taylor Desserts."

The 2011 has tremendous focus, with sap and salt character offsetting the victoria plum, cherry, strawberry, and fruit liqueur richness. 100% Pinot Noir.

Dark plum color with a hue of crimson red. An opulent bouquet of blackberry, red currant, plum, and dark cherry fruit emerge from the glass. Blackcurrant, cherry, and spice intertwine for an exceptionally balanced palate.

Shiny, green-gold color. Complex and subtle aromas of quince, walnuts, honey, ginger, and acacia with a hint of linden tree. A straightforward, non-aggressive palate, with a very elegant, very long, and almond finish.

The proprietary name Insignia was selected to represent the finest lots available from each vintage, and to emphasize the importance of blending over varietal designation as a determinate of quality.

Reminiscent of golden delicious apples, mango, ripe apricots, and hints of toast on the nose, this Chardonnay's mouthwatering acidity balances the slight creaminess that comes from its barrel aging and batonage.

Using selected Japanese Plum, "Ume", Hakutsuru Plum Wine has been brewed with highly developed fermentation skills and technique. It is characterized by its refreshing semi-sweet, sour taste and well-matured aroma from plum fruit.
