Pirramimma Petit Verdot 2006

McLaren Vale, South Australia, AustraliaPirramimma has been run by the Johnston family for over 100 years and the latest PV is one of the best. Pirramimma, or the moon and the stars in aboriginal speak is home to Oz's first 100 percent petit verdot. Always ripe and hedonistic the acid is in check and the fruit and finish are voluptuous without the knock-out alcohol. I assume the alcohol has been dial back but so what, the result is fine with us. Rich dense, dark, glossy black fruit is the story with an earthy underbelly that keeps it all in balance. Lamb chops anyone.Tasted: 16 May 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
