Saturday, October 16, 2010 - Woodinville Wine Tasting (Woodinville, WA): This is a pre-released Cabernet-Syrah blend, from the "second label" of Grand Reve. “Petrichor” comes from “petri”, meaning “rock”, and “ichor” is the ethereal colourless fluid that was said to flow in the veins of the Greek gods. An apt name for this elixir. Very rich, with nice structure, and amazing fruit on the attack. Mid-palate is full bodied and full of fruit, with a long sweet finish.

EDIT: It appears that Grand Reve scrapped the "Petrichor" name in favor of "Ptera", as this wine was released under that new name.
