Over ripe red berries. It’s bright, perfumey, but also a bit bland and weak.

Love the fact Virginia kills the Petit Verdot and Tannat scene. More accessible style of Petit Verdot here; less aggressive tannins. Maybe blended with Merlot... not quite sure. While visiting the vineyard, I didn’t get a chance to ask during the tasting. Nose is covered in black cherry sauce, blackberry jam, lilac, sage, campfire, loamy soil, hazelnut, and vanilla. Great tasting and even greater company.

Oak notes in the scent with a flavorful finish. In a few years, this will be a go-to wine.

Dry with no bite and a clean finish. Heavy on the tongue with a light aftertaste. A very good wine

Not very complex, but a nice, smooth red on the drier side.
