Blankiet Estate
Prince of Hearts Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Napa Valley, California, USA
Blend of 63% Cab Sauv & 28% Merlot with rest Cab Franc and Petit Verdot, deep Ruby with aromas of ripe berry fruits, herbs and licorice. On the palate black cherry, raspberry and blackberry flavors with espresso, mocha and earthy notes. Well balanced, medium acidity, fine ripe tannins long finish ending with fruit, cedar and toasty spice! Nice!

This was quite a treat after drinking mostly “under $20” wines for the past several months. I have more of this but wish I had MORE of this wonderful wine.

Jul 11th, 20202014 Prince of Hearts Cab. Light bodied with a clear hue. It drinks like a heavy Pinot or a light Cab. Delicious fruit with the right mineral balance. 👍🏼😊

Red-fruited and fairly soft. Middle-weight in all the good ways for a guy who likes his Cali on the more elegant side. Not a long ager maybe.

This has put on weight since my last bottle. Smooth on the palate with red and dark fruits.
