Grace Family Description
Winemaker Tasting Notes: Napa Valley benefitted from a near perfect growing season in 2016 resulting in stunning wines. The 2016 Blank Vineyard is no exception with its nuance, depth and texture. The 2016 Blank exhibits deep aromas of blueberry, black plum, forest floor, dark chocolate, tobacco, and fresh aromatic herbs. The rich palate is round and soft, with flavors of blue and black fruit, slate, cigar spice, and a hint of eucalyptus and plush tannins driving a long finish.
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon.
James Suckling: 97 Points
This is a solid and stoic red with currant, blueberry, iron and walnut character. Full body, firm and chewy tannins and a long and structured finish. Muscular and toned. Better after 2023.
Vinous: 95 Points
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon from Blank is a wine of pure and total seduction. Forward, racy and sumptuous, with beautifully lifted aromatics, silky tannins and mid-weight structure, the 2016 is going to prove nearly impossible to resist in the early going. Hints of chocolate, new leather, spice, rose petal and menthol add to the wine's undeniable raciness and appeal. The purity of the flavors is superb
