crowino Likes this wine: 90 points
January 10, 2020 - Colour matching the blood of demons. Berry, cedar and tobacco nose. Excellent balance, firm peppery structure, good acidity. Sad this will no longer be made as it is. It was great while it lasted, my introduction to stand-alone Petit Verdot - not at all hollow in the middle.

Although I have only tried this @ the winery, from your reviews it sounds like it is ageing very well. Thinking about starting with this vintage later this year. You feel it has a lot of life yet?
also...is this wine changing or being phased out? I know they don't make it every year, but I did score a few '17s. -
