Dark plum coloured with coriander, cloves and fruit cake on the nose. The wine shows dark plum and prune fruit on the palate.
Petit Verdot has an intense black colour with a vibrant purple rim. The nose is deep and brooding, with black cherry on the nose and aromas of violets, printers’ ink, iodine, dried sage, and cassis. Tight and focused structure on the mid palate with a medium length finish. Although Petit Verdot can be somewhat overwhelming as a single cultivar wine, the Zorgvliet wine is made in a style that respects elegance and balance.
