PIRRAMIMMA

Petit Verdot Reserve 2011

- 92 points -

Petit verdot, typically a supporting grape in Bordeaux blends, produces dark, jammy reds. Pirramimma always does a splendid job with this variety. This one’s intense, with big cherry, chocolate and coffee flavours that might put you in mind of something from Starbucks. Great acid lift on the juicy finish. Grilled rib-eye or barbecued ribs would work nicely.
