Winemaker Notes
Aromas of fresh plums, dried figs, and clove fuse with flavors of juicy red fruits, dried fall leaves, chocolate and dusty tannins.

Wine Enthusiast
This full-bodied wine is very firm in texture, stuffed with ripe blackberry, melted butter and black-cherry flavors and saturated with velvety, insistent tannins that need time to mellow. It's nicely mouthcoating and blends great fruit notes with black pepper and clove nuances. Best after 2024.

COMMENTARY: The 2016 OVIS Petit Verdot is in a class by itself. TASTING NOTES: This is a concentrated, powerful example of this grape variety. Its balance is excellent. Pair the wine's fullness with a rare cut of prime rib. (Tasted: September 11, 2019, San Francisco, CA)
