Petit Verdot

Petit Verdot Wine Details
Price:

Description: Historically used as a blending grape, the Petit Verdot produces full-bodied wines with intense deep garnet color. One is greeted by the distinctive aromas of tobacco with a hint of plum. The tobacco carries through the mid-palate, enhanced by layers of raspberry and mellow pepper unfolding within the rich, supple texture. Don't let historical precedence of a bold blending wine. The elegance of the mid-palate leads you to hints of cherry and a gentle, pleasing tannic finish.
