Petite Sirah on Snooth
We forgot we had this bottle and ended up drinking it after it sat in our cellar for a year. I had read that this would be a great wine to pair with something prepared on the grill so we drank it with BBQ Ribs. Delicious!

aromas of dark berries - blackberry, bosenberry, plums, filled with dark fruit on the palate as well with cocoa and chocolate notes, appeared high in alcohol to me but very enjoyable for a new world version of a petite syrah
