2022 Blackbird Vineyards 'Arise', Napa Valley
James Suckling, 93 points: Aromas of blood plums, graphite, dried herbs and bitter chocolate. The palate is full-bodied with softly integrated tannins and balanced acidity, giving flavors of blackberries, cedar, potpourri and dried herbs. Made from 47% cabernet sauvignon, 40% cabernet franc, 11% merlot and 2% petit verdot. Drink or hold.
Vinous, 91 points: Based on 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Cabernet Franc, 11% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, the 2022 Arise Proprietary Red reveals blackberry, cassis, graphite, and leather nuances, with a kiss of chocolate adding complexity. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has ripe tannins and a juicy, lively style that will drink nicely over the coming 10-15 years.
Wine Advocate, 91 points: A blend of 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Cabernet Franc, 11% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot, the 2022 Arise Proprietary Red boasts attractive violet and herbal notes that add hints of berry tea and ripe cherries. It's medium to full-bodied, supple, ripe and fleshy in the mouth, with understated tannins on the mouthwatering finish. It's a super value to drink over the next decade.
