2018 VIADER “V” Petit Verdot Blend
94+ Points
A blend of 61% Petit Verdot and 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Red Blend V has a deep garnet-purple color, opening with tantalizing notes of blackberry pie, blueberry preserves and warm cassis plus suggestions of chocolate box, new leather, black olives and tobacco leaf. The full-bodied palate has a firm line of ripe, grainy tannins and fantastic freshness supporting the brawny black fruit and savory layers, finishing with great length and depth. Give this another 3-4 years in bottle and drink it over the next 20 years+.
