2019 Petit Verdot
The vintage of 2019 is by far my favorite of the decade and has produced some my best work to date. Sourced from the incredible Stag Canyon Vineyard located on the eastern edge of Santa Ynez Valley with its tight spacing and rocky alluvial soils, this pristine vineyard is perfect for growing world class Bordeaux varietals. The grapes were fermented using native yeast to express the terroir of this amazing sight. The grapes were gently basket pressed prior to dryness to capture perfect balance and aged on lees for three years in seasoned French oak prior to bottling.
Tasting Notes:
Elegant aromas of blackberry, blueberry, and dark plum, along with sweet licorice, sandalwood, cured meats, blackberry crumble and white pepper. Rich upfront flavors of blackberry, blueberry, and plum are echoed in the mouth followed a rich core packed with dark chocolate, clove, leather, and blueberry pie. The finish is long and rich with velvet like tannins. Drinkable now but the wine will age for 20 years.
