On the Nose: Dark berry aromas lead the way, with rich notes of plum adding to the wine’s seductive bouquet. On the Palate: The Petit Verdot delivers a lush, silky experience on the palate, with dark berries and ripe plum flavours dominating. The soft, velvety tannins enhance the wine’s elegance, providing structure without heaviness, resulting in a beautifully balanced finish.

This Petit Verdot pairs beautifully with hearty dishes such as grilled ribeye steak, slow-cooked lamb shanks, or a rich mushroom and truffle risotto, complementing the wine’s bold fruit and smooth tannins.
