description: Petit Verdot as a pure varietal wine is not only rare, it's difficult. This is a classic blending grape, that can seem quite thick and tannic when tasted alone. Yet here, despite alcohol topping 15%, it is a beautifully proportioned and detailed blockbuster of a red. Along with the ripe blackberry fruit you'll find tar, toast, cedar and chocolate, layered nicely and unfolding through a long finish.
