Marques de Griñon 1999 Dominio de Valdepusa Petit Verdot (Vino da Mesa de Toledo)

Country: Spain / Dominio de Valdepusa
Variety: Petit Verdot Central Spain
Winery: Marques de Griñon / Vino da Mesa de Toledo

A lively, flavorful and well-balanced red made of a Bordeaux grape generally reserved for blending. Its bright berry aromas and flavors are offset by attractive black pepper and green tobacco accents. Good fruit, positive acidity and a firm, even tannic structure mean this stylish, elegant wine has a future. Drink now through 2007, best after 2004. —M.M.
