The Castoro Cellars Reserve Petite Verdot from the 2011 vintage is a captivating red wine that exemplifies the rich terroir of Paso Robles. This medium-bodied wine presents a beautifully structured profile, showcasing pronounced acidity that lends it a refreshing quality. The fruit intensity is prominent, with lush flavors of blackcurrant and dark cherry that intertwine seamlessly with hints of chocolate and spice, adding complexity to the experience. The tannins are notably firm, providing a solid backbone that complements the wine's bold character. This delightful Petite Verdot is dry, making it an ideal companion for various dishes, from hearty stews to grilled meats.

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
