Delicate aromas of red plums make up the aromatic profile of the 2002 Petit Verdot. A well-made wine, it regales the taster with copious quantities of black as well as red cherries, raspberries, plums, and spices in its deep, plush, satin-textured personality. Medium-bodied and harmonious, this varietal’s often aggressive tannin has been remarkably well-ripened, leaving it soft and sweet. Drink this beauty over the next 6 years.Tel.
