This wine has great clarity but is very dark from the red grapes used to make it. The aroma is reminiscent of freshly split cherry wood, with dark and red fruit notes of currants, black raspberries, loganberries, lingonberries, and currants. Pleasant tannin and tartness balance a sweet back. Flavors of cherry and black raspberry are complemented by toasted marshmallow and vanilla from the long oak aging. Presents with a pleasant and light mouthfeel and lingering acid on the finish.

Petite Pearl represents a full-bodied, complex wine embracing an intricate burst of wild blackberries and cherry, with notes of wild mushroom, vanilla, and mocha. The tannins are soft with enough acidity to cut through the ripe, dried fruit, and rich savory elements. This wine has a Syrah/Merlot taste and ages well. This wine is Certified Organic by (VOF) Vermont Organic Farmers.

Petite Pearl should be served at cellar temperature, 55° and may need some time to breathe (10-15 minutes in the glass). Because there are no sulfites added I protect the wine from oxidation by limiting exposure to oxygen. Since there is very little oxygen introduced during fermentation and aging it needs a little bit of air to really open up. Once the bottle is open it should be consumed within 24 hours. If you only want one glass blanket with an inert gas (argon, CO2, etc), re-cork, and refrigerate.

Pairing recommendations
• Pasta with a tomato-based sauce and wood-fired pizza
• Cheese, in particular, aged hard cheeses and Bayley Hazen Blue
• Chicken and duck, especially barbecued and braised
• Grilled meats, wild game, and vegetables
