| Community Tasting Notes (average 90 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 2 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Tchelistcheff on 11/2/2012 & rated 88 points: Started off nice, even if a bit heavy on the tanins and lacking in fruit. Not a particularly enjoyable wine and as it evolved I would say this is a coarser wine than I remember. Doubt it will improve further. (948 views) | | | Tasted by mdrwineman on 7/13/2009 & rated 92 points: Drinking really well! Showing just a touch of age, but in a good way. Good time to drink but should hold up for another 5 years or so... (1487 views) |
| Murphy-Goode Producer web sitePetit Verdot Varietal character (Appellation America)USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Sonoma CountyMendocino CountyAlexander Valley Alexander Valley Winegrowers Association | Wikipedia
