Bon Mot

2007 Dry Creek Valley Petite Sirah

Michel-Schlumberger Bon Mot is a captivating Petite Sirah from the renowned Dry Creek Valley region, showcasing the depth and character that this grape variety is celebrated for. This wine presents a deep, vibrant red color, indicative of its rich fruit profile. The body is full and robust, offering a delightful mouthfeel that envelops the palate. With bright acidity, it maintains a refreshing quality that enhances its overall balance. The tannins are notable yet supple, providing structure without overpowering the fruit-forward nature of the wine. On the nose and palate, expect pronounced notes of dark fruits, such as blackberry and plum, combined with hints of spice and earthiness, making it a truly memorable experience. This offering remains dry, allowing the fruit's natural flavors to shine through, inviting you to savor each sip and enjoy the complexity that comes with its age.

Dry Creek Valley

Dry Creek Valley AVA is located around 70 miles north of San Francisco, in the heart of Sonoma County. This small region may only be two miles wide, but it's a treasure trove of diversity thanks to its varied landscape and complex geological history. Flanked by rivers and lakes, the region's vineyards stretch from sun-soaked hillsides to cool valley floors. Its deep, gravelly soils are the perfect home for California's favorite red grape varieties, particularly Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, while Sauvignon Blanc thrives in cooler sites.
