Introduction

Michael David Petite Petit Lodi 2021 is a bold and captivating red blend, showcasing the intense power and unique synergy of two “petite” yet mighty grape varietals. Produced by Michael David Winery, a fifth-generation family-owned winery in Lodi renowned for their imaginative labels and commitment to sustainable practices, “Petite Petit” is a playful nod to the blend of Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot. This wine embodies the winery’s philosophy of crafting expressive, full-bodied wines from Lodi’s esteemed vineyards, where these varietals thrive in the region’s unique climate and diverse soils. The 2021 vintage in Lodi was generally considered excellent, with a long, consistent growing season that allowed grapes to develop concentrated flavors, firm structure, and balanced acidity, setting the stage for a wine of remarkable depth, robust character, and a striking presence.

Character Description

The Michael David Petite Petit Lodi 2021 enchants with an impenetrable, inky-purple hue, indicative of its profound concentration and youthful intensity. It offers an intensely aromatic and captivating bouquet of dense black plum, blueberry, and dark cherry, elegantly interwoven with intriguing notes of cracked black pepper, sweet baking spices (like vanilla and nutmeg), and a distinctive savory herbal undertone. Subtle nuances of dark chocolate, espresso, and a hint of floral violet may also emerge, adding layers of profound complexity. On the palate, it delivers a full-bodied and massively structured texture, with concentrated dark fruit and spiced flavors that mirror the nose. It’s supported by chewy, yet remarkably refined and powerful tannins that provide superb backbone and a long, expansive finish, balanced by a vibrant acidity that ensures freshness and remarkable precision for such a robust wine. The finish is exceptionally long, intensely layered, and profoundly satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of rich dark fruit intensity, complex spice notes, and the formidable, yet balanced, character that defines this unique and compelling Lodi blend.

Perfect Pairings

This robust and intensely flavorful blend is an exceptional partner for hearty and boldly flavored dishes, perfectly complementing its rich fruit, complex spice, and firm structure. It pairs beautifully with slow-smoked beef brisket, grilled lamb shanks, or rich, well-marbled steaks like ribeye or prime porterhouse. Its peppery and savory notes also make it an ideal accompaniment to barbecued pork ribs with a smoky glaze, spicy chili con carne, and robust stews featuring dark meats. Furthermore, it excels alongside aged, firm cheeses like mature cheddar, aged Gouda, or a pungent blue cheese. Its profound depth and compelling qualities make it a fantastic choice for a celebratory gathering, a hearty dinner, or for those who appreciate a powerful yet sophisticated red wine that truly expresses the distinctive character of Lodi’s unique varietals.
