2007 Petit Verdot

2007 Reserve

Petit Verdot

Offers embracing aromas of vanilla, mocha and clove with menthol and leather accents.  The dense, well-concentrated character  boasts an exotic core of high-toned pomegranate, candied orange peel and subtle sassafras flavors.  Be creative in your food pairings with this impressive, young red.  Spicy Greek cuisine anyone?
