Please the Palate
PLEASE THE PALATE WINE OF THE WEEK: ETTORE 2021 PETIT VERDOT, MENDOCINO COUNTY
For years, Petit Verdot has played a supporting role, adding color, structure, and depth behind the scenes, rarely taking center stage. But with the creation of International Petit Verdot Day, this often-overlooked grape is finally getting its moment. Celebrated at the end of January, this new wine day is a fitting reminder that Petit Verdot deserves attention not just as a blending component, but as a variety in its own right. That timing made this the perfect week for the Ettore 2021 Petit Verdot to be the Please The Palate wine of the week.
