Nottingham Cellars, Micro-Lot Reserve Petit Verdot 2013, Ghielmetti Vineyard, Livermore Valley, California

Tasting Note: An elegant expression of petit verdot.

Deep-intensity ruby in color, this wine has an aromatic nose of black plum and red cherry with light char and smoke.

On the palate the dry, medium-plus-bodied petit verdot has medium-plus acidity with some chalk and midpalate complexity.

There is balance between the fruit and ripe, medium-plus tannin.
