Petit Verdot has become one of the most widely planted varieties as of late in Virginia and is becoming important to the identity of wine making in our region. Aging  entirely in French oak brings out a savory side to our Petit Verdot that is layered with the black fruits and floral aromatics that are true to the variety. This is a full-bodied wine due to an abundance of well-rounded tannins and ripeness in the grapes, balanced well with bright acidity that emphasizes the blackberry and cherry flavors on the palate.
