Symphony Hill Petit Verdot Reserve

I enjoyed this a lot more than the Halliday review would suggest I should ..... it had some lovely funky aromas of mushroom and forest floor. While being quite fruit forward (cherries and raspberries) it was balanced by some savoury notes - smokey bacon?? The tannins provided support but were not obstructive. Served with duck ragu it made for a good friday night in.
