The 2018 Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars Napa Valley Petit Verdot Winemaker Series opens with a distinctly floral nose of jasmine tea, violet, and subtle spice, accented by hints of orange peel and rhubarb.
On the palate, it delivers a dark, full-bodied core of black currant, cassis, dark chocolate, and espresso, wrapped in a dense, polished texture. Firm yet composed tannins provide structure, with subtle hazelnut and vegetal notes adding depth on the lingering finish. This harmonious expression from the steady 2018 vintage captures Petit Verdot’s intensity with clarity and balance.
Serve at 60-65°F and pair with grilled ribeye or herb-roasted lamb.
