2 hour slo-ox, this was a brute. Tannins were resolved in the first 90 minutes but gained in the last hour. Wet earth, crushed black plum, ripe grainy tannins.

Very well made bordeaux-style wine. Tiny bit of petite verdot and cab franc goes a long way. Not even close to peak. If planning to drink now, you ought to let it slow ox for few hours.

Similar to notes in 2021. 2 hours slow ox in bottle. Full bodied. Plum, black currant, meat, tobacco, herbs, dusty tannins with a building lasting finish. Always such a pleasure to experience well stored Blankiet. 94+
