Evangelos Bagias Lodi Petit Verdot 2021
About the wine
This red has the power of a V8 engine
- This is a juicy, dark and brambly red, bouncing with big fruit flavors and barrel spice.
- Thanks to your funding, Evangelos was able to highlight Petit Verdot – a super-rich red variety – from one of Lodi's top vineyards, where conditions line up perfectly for it to develop complex, intense flavors.
- This Petit Verdot has the finesse and complexity to be enjoyed all on its own, but is also versatile enough to pair perfectly with a wide variety of foods, especially grilled meats. For a go-to red, look no further!
