James Suckling (95)

This is an opulent and rich red, with intensity and freshness at the same time. It’s full-bodied with plush and integrated tannins that fold nicely into the wine. Fleshy texture. Creamy and round-tannined. Juicy finish. A blend of 66% cabernet sauvignon, 20% merlot, 11% cabernet franc and 3% petite verdot.

The 2019 The Mark, Carte Blanche's red blend, is powerful and explosive to the core. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, menthol and espresso all meld together. The 2019 offers an intriguing mix of opulent and more vibrant notes that emerge over time. I very much admire the complexity, energy and freshness here. The 2019 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon from Missouri Hopper, Merlot from Orchard and Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot from Sage Ridge.

Really well-built, with lean muscle and great form, showing cassis, plum and blackberry fruit flavors nicely melded with a hint of melted black licorice, roasted alder, violet and cool, dark earth. Reveals a terrific sense of polish and refinement through the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
