Santa Carolina Gran Reserva Petit Verdot 2011, Rapel Valley, Chile: An attractive red wine made from an obscure red grape that's often part of Bordeaux blends to add colour and heft. Aromas of dark fruit and a savoury mid-palate note. Tannic so decant 1 hour. You can't beat the price for the quality. Drink: 2013-2017. 7484 14.50% D 750 mL $15.95 Score: 89/100. March 1, 2014
