The McClellan Estate Vineyard first planted Petit Verdot in 2003 and Seven Hills has used it for blending since 2001. This very old world feeling wine opens with aromatics of black tea, black olive, white pepper, and cassis. There are flavors of black olive, blackberry cobbler and black tea. This has a lithe minerality and excellent balance of fruit and acidity considering the heat of the vintage. (Best 2016-2027) - August, 2016 (OB)
