Blankiet Estate
Proprietary Red 2015
From their organically farmed Paradise Hills Vineyard Estate, this is a blend of 84.2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7.0% Merlot, 4.8% Cabernet Franc, 4.0% Petit Verdot. It aged 19 months in French oak.
“The 2015 Proprietary Red is a model of total elegance and finesse. Lifted and aromatically expressive, but also quite deep, the 2015 is another wine that is surprisingly fresh and vibrant. Aromatically expressive and nuanced, the 2015 is silky and plush on the palate, yet also remains remarkably tight on its feet. This is one of the most exquisitely beautiful, riveting wines I have tasted from Claude & Katherine Blankiet.” - 98 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, March 2018.
“A Bordeaux blend of mainly Cabernet Sauvignon with smaller portions of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, the 2015 Proprietary Red Paradise Hills Vineyard sports a deep garnet-purple color and is profoundly scented of crushed blackcurrants and blackberries with fragrant menthol, tilled soil, pencil shavings and Indian spice notions. Medium to full-bodied and tightly knit at this youthful stage, it has a solid frame of ripe, fine-grained tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and lively. It really needs another 2-3 years in bottle to really strut its stuff, then should drink beautifully for the next 20+ years. Drink 2020-2040.” - 96+ points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, MW, Wine Advocate, October 31, 2017.
