We cultivate less than 500 Petit Verdot grapevines in a single acre adjacent to the Brothers Vineyard.  Its stated purpose is to complement our Cabernet Sauvignons, but we always try to bottle a barrel or two as a varietal – initially to explore terroir, but we've become enthralled by the dark, rich, spicy, aromatic wine the little vineyard produces.  It's named after Levi Philander Davis, who homesteaded the ranch in 1878.  As Diana blended the '23 Cabernets, she was only able to hold out a single barrel of Petit Verdot to bottle as a stand-alone.  What to serve alongside?  Thai chicken?  Whole grilled white fish with a Mango chutney?  Perhaps some shaved water chestnuts on top, lightly toasted in place?  29 cases bottled.
