Blankiet Release

Just got notice yesterday of the release of their 3 flagship wines. I am surprised there hasn’t been any discussion yet. I have not had them for several years since procuring some in a trade. I am a fan of Graeme MacDonald their new winemaker. He evidently had some involvement in the 2015 vintage but the 2016 is the first vintage that is totally his. The 2015 have gotten some great critical press but am interested if anyone from the board has tasted them from either barrel or bottle and who is buying and which bottlings.

Have not tasted the ‘15 but based on the quality of the vintage, the past and present winemakers who touched these and my enjoyment of past vintages, I purchased 1 each of the Mythicus, the Proprietary Red and the Rive Droite. Definitely at the high end of my price limit, but I made myself feel better by reading the 2015 Screagle thread :slight_smile:

What are they asking for the wines these days?

$225 for the Proprietary Red
$195 for the Rive Droite
$250 for the Mythicus

Prices to me seem very fair for the quality of the wine and the winemakers talent
