Very good wine, acidic and high tannins. Not as bold on the dark fruit but decent enough for a grape of this kind from VA.

VA Monticello Petit Verdot against a Cali Napa Valley Cab.
Pairing: American Wagyu Strip, Home Fries, Mushroom Ron Zacapa 23 glaze.
As much as I love my Napa Cabs, the edge went to the PV. 93 - 92.
