The Blankiet Estate Rive Droite Paradise Hills 2011 is a Bordeaux-style blend from Napa Valley’s Paradise Hills vineyard. The 2011 vintage produced balanced grapes. It pours a deep ruby, with aromas of blackberry, cassis, and graphite, plus mocha and herbs. The palate is opulent, with plush tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering dark fruit and spice. Aged 20 months in French oak, it’s a critic’s favorite. Pair with grilled steak or mushroom risotto. A collector’s treasure.
