Road 13 Jackpot Petit Verdot 2012

Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBig coffee, vanilla, chocolate, plum jam nose with gamey, raisin-y, smoky, licorice, savoury herb aromas. Full, ripe, round and suave on the palate with light tannins and some definite warmth. Tea leaf, earthy, raisin-y, prune, black olive, savoury, ginger, licorice and coffee flavours. Made in a super ripe, Napa Valley style that is somewhat over the top. Long and warm with lots of young, dominant oak. This need a number of years to integrate both the oak, the final acidity and some hefty tannins on the finish.Tasted: 22 December 2015Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:
