Pauillac, France
8.0
WineSaint
Dark and savory, with cassis, graphite and exotic spices building intensity. The Petit Verdot component shows clearly in the wine's earthy, mineral-driven profile. Firm tannins provide classical Pauillac backbone while bright acidity keeps everything focused and precise. Built for the cellar.
