Description
This is the inaugural release of Petit Verdot from the esteemed Matchbook Estate, Dunnigan Hills California. The varietal characteristics of this Bordeaux grape develop fully when allowed to ripen slowly, well into fall. Ideally suited to this region. A blend of 88% Petit Verdot, 11% Malbec and 1% Toroldego and matured for 13 months in barrel.
Smells
warm chocolate, mulberries, coffee, cigar box and cedar aromas lure you in.
Tastes
It’s a big, ripe, incredibly concentrated wine with a viscous texture which makes you feel like you are being hugged on the inside. Ripe black plums, mocha, hints of molasses, coffee grinds with blackberries and bramble flavours are coated by the smooth, soft tannins and acid. Delicious drinking now or cellar 5-8 years. Pair this full-flavored red with aged cheese, lamb shank or roasted pork loin
