Seven Hills 2009 Petite Verdot (Walla Walla Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Petite Verdot Washington
Winery: Seven Hills / Walla Walla Valley (WA)

This is unusually smooth and silky for Petit Verdot, which is often used in small amounts for blending. This is 100% varietal, with the floral aroma of the grape matched to deep flavors of cassis and smoky espresso. The tannin management is spot on.
