96 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2017 Blacktail Proprietary Red Blend MMXVII is a blend of 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Malbec, 23% Petite Sirah and 4% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple in color, it is a little closed to begin, requiring some swirling to reveal a seducing perfume of lilacs, baked plums, blueberry pie and spice cake with hints of potpourri, unsmoked cigars and chocolate mint. The palate is medium to full-bodied and concentrated, but not in the least heavy, delivering layer upon layer of perfumed black fruits and a velvety texture, finishing fragrant and long, long, long. It is an exercise in polish and poise.

The 2017 Proprietary Blend Blacktail is a terrific red from this challenging vintage, and it has some upside as well. Based on 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Malbec, 23% Petite Sirah, and the balance Petit Verdot, it offers beautiful purity of fruit as well as notes of violets, spice, and peppery herbs. With good acidity, ripe tannins, and outstanding balance, it’s going to be even better in 2-4 years and evolve for over a decade. Rating: 93+

The 2017 Blacktail, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot is gorgeous. It also shows how complementary certain varieties can be in a blend. Savory herb, black pepper and licorice accents add striking nuance. Aromatic and savory, with tons of fruit, this bold super-expressive red is truly impressive.

WINEMAKER NOTES

This new blended wine offers a broad spectrum of aromas, flavors, and textures. The blend is 37% Malbec, 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Petite Sirah, 4% Petit Verdot, all from our estate vineyard.

The wine is as complex, expansive, and hedonistic as it sounds. The wine is juicy and fruit-driven, with notes of blueberries and cream, chocolate, flint and baking spices. Its silky texture is very alluring, as as the wine flows across the palate there is an ever-increasing list of descriptors that come to mind, from bing cherry, black currant and nutmeg, to white flowers, chaparral, and clove.

While this wine can certainly be enjoyed straight away, it will continue to evolve with time in the cellar.
