Livermore Valley Petit Verdot awarded 92 points in Wine Enthusiast Magazine
Our 2008 Ghielmetti Vineyard, Livermore Valley Petit Verdot was just awarded 92 points in the October issue of the Wine Enthusiast Magazine. This is the highest rating given to a Petit Verdot in the magazines 23 year history. Here is what reviewer Virginie Boone had to say, “A sensational varietal Petit Verdot that’s rich and velvety, lush and intense, with a hint of Bordeaux’s typical herbiness, that evolves into some of the best blackberry, mocha and spicy chocolate you can imagine.”
