Carte Blanche Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 is a Napa Valley red wine blending 90% Cabernet Sauvignon with 10% Petit Verdot. Nicholas Allen launched the project in 2008, enlisting winemaker Luc Morlet. The Petit Verdot contributes depth of colour, tannic grip and a medicinal-floral undertone.
The nose opens with crushed blackberry and blueberry, then minerals, bitter chocolate and violet, with a youthfully medicinal quality. The palate is dense, with blue and black fruit, grilled herbs, licorice, new leather and menthol, anchored by bitter chocolate and medicinal dark fruit. The finish is incisive and long, with graphite, crushed rocks and lingering tobacco, framed by substantial tannins.
