Proximity Twenty Six Santa Ynez Valley Petit Verdot Blend

A nice, recent find. I'm usually not too much of a fan of Bordeaux blends from SB County but the 2013 vintage of this is nice. I don't think it has the holding power (read acidity or tannins) to last much longer before reaching its peak but what's there now is still pretty bold & fruit-forward. Had it with some slow-cooked pot roast & it paired quite nicely. — 9 years ago

No hurry to drink these. Barrel notes getting well integrated, and the alcoholic bite has mellowed. Deep and complex. Toffee, sherry, hazelnut. Fantastic. — 10 years ago

Update: the beef tongue was awful, so I ate Charlie's mac and cheese. Beer paired well with that, too.
