  1/22/2010 - DrinkNectar Likes this wine: 90 Points

  The Stuff: 100% Petit Verdot from Alice Vineyards
  The Swirl: Dark inky plum with beautiful legs after heavy swirl
  The Sniff: Slightly musty and earth smell. Pencil shavings and banana. Not overly fruity at first. Eventually opened up to express some flower (Violets I think).
  The Sip: A very diverse tasting wine. It seemed to have different characteristics each time I sipped it. Started to pick up on the blackberry and it tasted floral and slightly sour cherries. Not tart on the back end and surprisingly smooth drinking.
  The Score: At $30 retail, I score this wine a solid 4. I would buy it again because of the variety of flavor and how different it is compared to the majority of other Washington reds.
