2017 Reserve Petit Verdot
A single varietal Petit Verdot is a rare find in Washington State and it’s even more special to find a reserve wine, which only happens in the most perfect of growing years.
The color is a dense inky black plumb, with a clear burgundy rim with a nose that’s chocked full of abundant black fruits and undertones of molasses. As it opens up you’ll notice fragrant scents of soft violet and a touch of leather.
The first sip is saturated with pronounced ripe blackberry, black cherry and plum, followed in the mid-palate by blueberry, huckleberry and a hint of dark cocoa. It finishes with mature Marion berry, sweet vanillin, black licorice and fleck of black pepper.
This is such an explosive, robust and aromatic wine that it pairs wonderfully with an abundance of foods. It’s a unique and extraordinary wine just awaiting a special place in your cellar.
Drink now and enjoy or cellar up to 3-9 years.
