Once again I was impressed with the wines I tasted from Blackbird. My only real critique is that a number of the top Cabernet Franc bottlings are not that differentiated from each other. That is a relatively small criticism, as the wines are really all quite delicious, but my sense is that more could be done to give some of these offerings more distinct identities.
