Petite Petit

2009 Lodi 85% Petite Sirah, 15% Petit Verdot

The Michael David Winery Petite Petit, hailing from the esteemed Lodi region, is a delightful blend primarily composed of Petite Sirah with a touch of Petit Verdot. This full-bodied red wine captivates with its deep purple hue, enticing aromas of dark berries and plums, punctuated by notes of black pepper and dark chocolate. Its acidity is bright and refreshing, providing a lovely lift to the palate. With a robust structure, the tannins offer a firm yet pleasing backbone, perfectly balancing the wine's prominent fruit intensity. As a dry wine, it maintains a clean finish, making it incredibly food-friendly. Whether enjoyed alongside a hearty meal or savored on its own, the 2009 Petite Petit showcases the rich, bold character that Lodi wines are known for.

Region:


Lodi

The jewel of the Central Valley, Lodi lies just east of the California Delta in an area of varied terroir. Winemakers here can extract different grape variety expressions from each plot of land. Zinfandel is common here, making deeply fruity and tantalizingly smoky wines, often from old vines. But the deep loamy soils and balmy Mediterranean climate, with its warm days and cool nights, help keep Lodi's grape varieties and winemaking styles impressively diverse. Alongside the ubiquitous Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot and Viognier also thrive. Lodi is a melting pot of different grape varieties and winemaking techniques, all of which make it a rewarding region to explore.
