Blankiet Rive Droite Paradise Hills 2006

"Good deep, bright ruby-red. Highly aromatic nose combines mulberry, boysenberry, tobacco and flowers. Intensely flavored and sweet, with a scented quality to the fruit-driven flavors of ripe plum, mulberry and flowers. For all its breadth and sweetness this also boasts excellent tannic structure and grip. Beginning with vintage 2007, this wine is likely to include bits of petit verdot and cabernet franc."
