15.7% alcohol. The label doesn’t specify the variety, but I seem to recall that it is Petite. It tastes like Petite.
My first Scholium. Dark purple ruby. I first tasted this last night - and was singularly unimpressed. While it had a rich mouthfeel and obvious structure, it was lean and unyielding. No fun.
The second day out and this lusty lady is singing for me. Expressive black fruit aromas. Blueberries and blackberries on the palate. Gorgeous mouthfeel and a lingering aftertaste. If this is Petite - it is one of the best I’ve had in a long, long time. Highly recommended - but decant this one for a while.
