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.

Aromatics from Grenache(?) bring some lift, but focus is on the force of the wine. Iron fist in a velvet glove style. Not a shy wine, tannins are loud but refined. Great to drink now (give two days at least to taste!) but could age for 10 yr.
