Klenke is my hero!

Sorry about that. Other option, my friends own a wine shop in Edmonds. It's called Arista Wine Cellars (425-771-7009). My thought was, Edmonds was too far from where you live and Esquin would be closer for you. Shame on them for not being helpful! I though all wine shops believed in good customer service. Nonetheless, if you are interested in getting a 100% PV and avoiding the shipping, call the Arista's - ask for Roger, Dave or Ruth. If it's available from one of their distributors, they will order it, as long as they do not have any restrictive minimums (i.e. one case). Unlike Esquin, they WILL order it for you if they have access. It's a small home town wine shop. And if they don't, let me know! I'll get a bottle and send it to you.

I highly recommend Esquin Wine Merchants http://www.esquin.com/. They will have a 100% Petit Verdot. If they don't, they'll find it for you and order it. When looking for a 100% PV, look into New World wines (Australia, Argentina, Canada, Chile, New Zealand, South Africa, US) not European wines. They typically blend it.
