This rare glimpse of Petit Verdot perfection is a gift from Mother Nature. Deep and rich, it exemplifies the robust and intense nature of Petit Verdot. This is... The Flagship. The good rains in 2014 ensured that the vines had ample reserves after a nice chilly winter. The 2015 season was characterized as long and dry but with no unwelcome heat waves. This caused a long growing season and ensured one of the most intensely flavour vintages in many years. The 2015 vintage will definitely make you sit up and take notice
