    Very nice blend.

    What struck me the most about this wine was the big tannins and oak. Don’t worry, you won’t miss them. The tannins smack you right in the face followed by a nice shot of oak.

    We don’t see a lot of petit verdot in this area. It’s a grape most often used in blends and does add tannins.

    While certainly not a sipper this wine pairs well with beef.

    This unusual blend is very nice and is worth a try.
