Variety: Petit Verdot
Region/G.I.: Hunter Valley, Hunter, Pokolbin
Vintage: 2010
Closure: Screwcap
Colour: Brown-purple
Alcohol: 13.8%
Bouquet: Brambly with some animal stall aromas
Flavour: Full bodied, tar, earth and drying spice like rosemary in the mix with gentle tannins to finish. An unusual profile due to its savouriness. F detected some eucalypt in the tail as well and I would agree.
Points: 86 (3+7+12+7+7+50)

Notes: It's rare to find this a varietal and I've been holding this a while to taste with F (as K does not seem to be doing a visit any time soon). Unusual and enjoyable. Bought it 3 years ago for about $15.50 ~ 280Kc
