Wine Review: This deep purple colored Petite Verdot based blend from Jefferson Vineyards opens with an inviting black cherry and violet bouquet with hints of boysenberry and espresso. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, smooth, and very approachable. The flavor profile is a black cherry and black plum blend with notes of nutmeg and crispy bacon. I also detected hints of currant, black pepper, and a touch of stone dust. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity and well-managed medium tannins linger nicely. This red blend went perfectly with my beef tips with mushroom gravy. Enjoy - Ken
