About The Wine

Petit Verdot, the most exotic of the Bordeaux vines, is the basis of a wine that is equal parts unique and surprising. A meticulous selection and careful proportions of this variety are chosen to form a unique and energetic single-varietal. The terroir where its vines are planted, predominantly sandy, and its subsequent rest in barrels give it an exquisite character.

With a firm and structured body, it has a long silky and warm finish. Very exclusive and select production. A vintage wine that will unfold its full potential over the years. Vineyards planted in 1991. Located at an altitude of 840 meters above sea level. After a very hot month of May, the vine plants sprouted very quickly. There were no frosts in spring, so the development of the plant remained advanced until maturity. The soil is sandy, with a clay-silty subsoil and a relatively high water table. Warm soil with good water supply. Continental climate.

Maceration for only 9 days, despite that it is the most powerful of all the Petit Verdot made by the house but with a remarkable fineness of tannins. Malolactic fermentation in new and used French and American barrels.

The 2019 Petit Verdot, from a single vineyard on sand and stone soils, has the usual 14.5% alcohol but again shows serious, harmonious, Atlantic and elegant with herbal and peppery notes but with the good ripeness and clout from a warm and dry year. It fermented in stainless steel and matured in new French and American oak (25%) barrels for 17 months. 2,520 bottles were filled in May 2021.

Martha Says...

“One of the most elegant wines, I have tasted. Definitely a personal favourite!”

Food Match

Red and white meats, big game and feathered game. It also goes well with blue cheeses.
