Toasting the new (and former) President’s recent Election Victory. Deep ruby color with purple highlights. Aromas of black plum/currant/raspberry fruit with a touch of leather and smoke. Same fruits on the palate with touches of black pepper and dark chocolate. Medium finish that is a bit oaky and slightly bitter. A bit thin from a textural, tannin and mouthfeel perspective. Reasonable vintage. — 15 days ago

Stunning… Beautiful concentration of a variety capable of dense blackberry beautifulness :) I would say I age this to perfection with patients! — 6 months ago

Well balanced, hints of under-ripe fruit — maybe melon and pear. Tastes like Chardonnay grape. Finish is interesting and slightly metallic. Quite nice, an unexpected surprise. — 3 months ago

VA Monticello Petit Verdot against a Cali Napa Valley Cab.
Pairing: American Wagyu Strip, Home Fries, Mushroom Ron Zacapa 23 glaze.
As much as I love my Napa Cabs, the edge went to the PV. 93 - 92. — 8 months ago
