Description:
This iconoclastic blend of the
wonderfully aromatic and flowery
Viognier with the complex, full
bodied Petit Verdot creates a truly
pleasant and versatile wine. Bright
and clean, the Persimmon hues
remind you of the warm soft glows of
a summer sunset. The initial
impression when smelling the wine
is a hint of rose and nutty spice.
Slightly citric with mild tones of
apricot and pear, the Viognier is
beautifully balanced with the more
subdued and mature Petit Verdot.
This 90/10 blend is lightly
sweetened which allows all the mild
fruit flavors to shine through without
too much tannin. This wine is truly
versatile. Great with seafood,
traditional cheese platters, or fruit
such as melon and pears. Serve
chilled.

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.
