Mcmanis Petite Sirah California 2012

Snoothrank:

Dark. Jammy, smoky, spicy. Just a little oak. Very nice. One of my favorite petite sirahs. I enjoy drinking a glass of this wine on its own--food not necessary. I have never tried a McMannis Petite that I did not like. Very distinctive sirah out of Ripon, CA. Read More

Mcmanis Chardonnay 2012

Snoothrank:

Their 2012 wine is very similar to the 2011 but not quite as rich; toasty oak, honey, citrus and a good amount of fruit overall. Nice. My rating -- 88. Read More
