Keller Westhofener Kirchspiel Riesling Trocken Grosses Gewachs 2014 (US Label)

Perhaps the finest wine yet made at Blankiet is the spectacular 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Paradise Hills Vineyard

cassis and earth aromas

The wine is full-bodied and dense with moderately high tannin

shows beautiful fruit purity

This promising effort appears to have more than enough density to eventually absorb the wood treatment

The still very firm and backward middle weight plus flavors possess both excellent mid-palate density and plenty of minerality that carries over to the hugely long finish that is impeccably well-balanced

elegant and bright floral-suffused nose features notes of cool blue pinot fruit

the 2010 St

A brooding and intensely earthy nose is comprised by notes of both red and dark berries that are trimmed in soft spice and sauvage hints

showing good backbone

Since I last tasted it

this is a seriously impressive effort that should age effortlessly
