What to Expect

Petite Sirah is one of a group of grapes that took to a new home - in this case California - after moving from the relative obscurity enjoyed at its birthplace - France in this case - where it is called Duriff. While never particularly elegant nor subtle, Petite Sirah can produce large-scaled, intense wines with bright flavors of blue and plummy fruits, rich with earthy tannins.

Winemakers Notes

Deep tantalizing burgundy colors convulse with aromas of blackberry pie and black cherries. Full bodied, vanilla infused prune crash through the palate, balancing out with hints of leather and toasted oak.

Rich combination of red fruits, coffee, and chocolate. What a fruity petite sirah should be. Excellent value.
