Dehesa del Carrizal Petit Verdot 2016

Tasting: As they do here in Australia, there are certain French varieties that make excellent wine in Spain too, Petit Verdot being one of them. This outstanding example of the Bordelaise grape variety packs a punch, forthright black fruit, black plums, black cherry, rich and dense with black pepper, herbs and concentrated muscular length.
