My thoughts on some mid-priced Bordeaux…and a really bad marketing campaign.

I try to avoid the “here’s what I drank last night” approach to wine blogging, just because I don’t think it’s that useful or that interesting. However, I do make exceptions if I think the wine is particularly notable. Last night was one of those exceptions.

Inspired by Stephen Colbert and his genius “Better Know a District” segment, I’m kicking off an occasional feature profiling some lesser-known grapes. First up: Petit Verdot.
