VQA
Petit Verdot is an extremely small batch wine and therefore highly sought after. The 2019 vintage was low-yielding, producing only six barrels of this unique and concentrated wine. The low yields offer a deliciously rich and concentrated wine with velvety tannins and dark fruit character.
Petit Verdot is one of our favourite Bordeaux varietals in that it is delicious alone, showing a bouquet of ripe fruit and a hint of violets, but is also a fabulous grape for blending to make our red blends richer and more complex without dominating.
-
Deep garnet colour with an ever-changing bouquet of dark plum, baking spice, sweet oak, tobacco leaf and chocolate.
This full-bodied wine has firm drying tannins, great structure and moderate acidity.
Rich, ripe fruit flavours of blackberry, black currant and blue plum are accented by notes of spice and oak.
The extra-dry finish shows wonderful notes of blackberry, currant, spice, earth, oak and leather.
Pairs well with grilled steak au jus and sautéed mushrooms; beef tenderloin wrapped in bacon; pot roast; roast beef; rosemary lamb chops; roasted leg of lamb; two-year-old Canadian cheddar.
