About Izu Petit Verdot 2021

"Izu Petit Verdot 2021" is a red wine made exclusively from Petit Verdot grapes grown in the warm climate of Izu City.

The appearance is a deep ruby color with a slight purple hue.

The aroma of black fruits such as blackberry and cassis harmonizes with the refreshing acidity of blueberry and plum.

When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the rounded astringency and pleasant acidity, as well as the rich, concentrated flavor of the fruit.

The rich aroma of oak barrels, the spicy aftertaste reminiscent of cloves, and the long, lingering finish are truly elegant, keeping the drinker entertained until the very end.

Please take this opportunity to pick up a bottle and enjoy the elegant taste nurtured by the bounty of Izu.
