Napa Petit Verdot

Napa Reserve Petit Verdot Wine Details
Price: $50.00 per bottle

Description: The rich elegant texture of our 2005 Petit Verdot is complemented when paired with dishes of equal sophistication. Our chef's favorite pairing for this special wine is apple wood bacon wrapped pan-seared filet mignon topped with a stilton cheese crust accompanied by roasted fingerling potatoes and lightly sautéed morel mushrooms.

Varietal Definition
Petit Verdot:
Petite Verdot is one of the five noble Bordeaux varietals, essentially acting as the nuts and bolts in most Bordeaux blends. With intense color and racy flavors, this wine possesses elements of pencil shavings, dark fruit presentation and a subtle complexity, which can be appreciated by even the most discerning palate.
