02 Harris was better than the 02 Blankiet when side by side. Big group all agreed.

Good to hear the Treva's showed well. Blankiet cab I assume? I like the '02 Blankiet Merlot quite a bit.

Based on all of the recent notes that I've seen on the Blankiet that may be damning with faint praise.

This is going to add to the controversy of this wine. Decanted & tasted over 4 hours. So, I gave it a good shot & plenty of time. A real fine bottle of wine, did not taste any of the problems noted above. Then again, it did not make the impression that the 1st 2 bottles that I tasted in the past.

A fine bottle of wine that we enjoyed very much though the QPR of this wine this time around is something to question. It is still a youngster & needs more time... Plenty of fruit & tannins to go around & a long, fine, pleasant finish. Though, I was looking for the bottle to illustrate or flaunt a little more. But, it never did.

Rating: 92+ & hold. Perhaps it will reach 93 points but I don't see much more than that @ least with the bottle I had this weekend.

P.S.: This is a Parker 94 pointer.

Interesting, just about the same exact TNs as the post above about 2 years ago. Really, I don't have much more to + then stated above. Tonight again in the 92-93 range. I fine bottle of wine. Is it a $100+ bottle of wine? - Well, no it is not. Enjoyed it tonight with home made pizza. No rush but with some air time, not a crime either. Decanted/Tasted over 2-3 hours.
