Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker’s rating: 92 points)
Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Petit Village strolls out of the glass with open-for-business scents of stewed black plums, blackberry pie and blueberry compote, plus hints of spice cake, Sichuan pepper and fallen leaves. Full-bodied, rich and spicy, the palate delivers lovely freshness and a soft texture, finishing satisfyingly savory.
