Januik Petite Verdot -2005 (WE-91129)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Dark and sappy, this has a wonderful floral top note, and then what comes in is a lot of sappy, juicy berry fruit. The barrel toast is proportional to the tannins and the fruit; it’s a sappy, dark, ripe, tannic wine for those who like the power of Petite Sirah, but ultimately want more structure and acid. 1 Note

Castle Rock Petite Verdot -2007 (WE-107919)

Dry and tannic, with flavors of cherries, herbs and tobacco. Not a lot going on, but this is a good price for a sturdy, full-bodied red wine. 1 Note

Finca Antigua Petite Verdot -2006 (WE-90406)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Runs up and down the hill with firmness, acidity and zest. There’s clear cherry on the nose and some Zin-like flavor that tells you it’s something different (Petit Verdot). Not weak but sort of limited in content. There’s also holding potential based on how it quickly improves with airing. A treat for everyday meats, stews, pastas and grills. 1 Note

Midnight Cellars Petite Verdot -2006 (WE-116721)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Raisins and chocolate are the dominant themes of this rather sweet, tannic wine. It’s very full-bodied and soft in acidity, and it finishes a bit hot. 1 Note

Casale del Giglio Petite Verdot -2006 (WE-100344)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Here’s a Petit Verdot from Lazio (the mighty region of the Italian capital) that shows some sulfur notes at the start that blow off quickly enough. The wine delivers raw, penetrating red fruit and bright but slightly sour cherry notes on the close. 1 Note

Casale del Giglio Petite Verdot -2008 (WE-115808)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Smokey tones of charcoal and dark granite or slate rise from the nose of this Lazio-based Petit Verdot. Dusty mineral notes are followed by dark, ripe fruit and the wine is long-lasting and penetrating on the close. 1 Note

Gifford Hirlinger Petite Verdot -2007 (WE-111125)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

All estate-grown fruit, blended with 11% Merlot, which seems to soften up the tannins a bit. This is aromatic and complex, weaving together scents of cassis, licorice, tobacco and smoke. Flavors follow, with plenty of black cherry fruit in the concentrated core. 1 Note

Watermill Petite Verdot -2006 (WE-106148)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

This smooth and sexy PV includes 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. But for Petit Verdot, it is remarkably accessible. The tannins are reined in, the color a deep garnet, the nose loaded with violets, chocolate and cassis. 1 Note

As sweet as a cherry and chocolate truffle, with peppermint sprinkles. Smooth and clean, but too sugary for a table wine. 1 Note

Gifford Hirlinger Petite Verdot -2008 (WE-130990)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Clean and well-ripened fruit holds down center court here; tart and tight flavors of currant and berry. It’s wrapped in a shell of tannin that is still hard and seeming to hold the wine back. The best guess is to give it some bottle age and let it breathe, and you will be rewarded with a polished and expressive wine. 1 Note
