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

WINEMAK I N G
Durif is a rich and robust red grape variety that revels in the warm and dry
conditions of the family’s Manuka Grove Vineyard at Hanwood in the Riverina.
Durif is otherwise known as Petit Syrah. After harvest, the grapes were crushed,
yeasted and pumped over in traditional style to avoid the extraction of bitter
tannins. The wine was then transferred to American oak for fermentation, followed
by a further 16 months maturation in new, one and two year old French and
American oak prior to final blending and bottling.
