Church & State Wines CBS Petit Verdot 2017

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaPetit verdot is as big as it gets when it ripens, and in the south Okanagan, there is no problem ripening PV. Look for a deep opaque colour with a ripe, perfumed nose of violets and sweet black fruits, and peppery, black and blueberry jam on the palate, with smoky dark plum dusted in savoury Black Sage Bench sagebrush and pine. The tannins are deep and rich and will need five years to be mellow. Best with rich dishes like grilled steaks and barbecue pork ribs. Not for the timid.Tasted: 22 June 2021Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
