250 Anniversary Petit Verdot

America 250 Years - one unforgettable bottle

2024 OPR PETIT VERDOT

To celebrate America’s 250th birthday, Callaway has chosen to commemorate this historic milestone with an exclusive bottling of 100% Petit Verdot.

While Petit Verdot is most often known as a blending variety, exceptional fruit deserves the opportunity to stand on its own. This limited release showcases the grape in its purest expression, revealing remarkable depth, concentration, and complexity. Deeply colored and intensely aromatic, it offers layers of black fruit, violet, spice, and finely structured tannins that promise both immediate enjoyment and years of graceful aging.

As a winemaker, opportunities to bottle a varietal like this are rare. It requires the right vineyard, the right vintage, and fruit that achieves exceptional balance and ripeness. This wine is a celebration not only of America’s 250 years of history, but also of the craftsmanship, patience, and dedication that go into every bottle.

Produced in extremely limited quantities, this commemorative release is a tribute to both our nation’s legacy and the pursuit of exceptional winemaking.

As this Petit Verdot was only recently bottled, it is still in its youth and will continue to evolve beautifully over time. Perhaps my best recommendation is to buy two bottles (or more). Open one now and give it several hours in a decanter to experience the wine in its youthful, powerful expression. Then tuck the second bottle away in your cellar for a few years. It will reward your patience with greater complexity, softer tannins, and an even more harmonious expression of this exceptional Petit Verdot – Winemaker, Giovani Verdejo
