A dense and rich nose of blackberry jam, roasted coffee beans, bramble berries and sweet spices. The palate is full-bodied with firm tannins and acidity, displaying notes of roasted blood plums, figs, violets and blueberry compote. Drink or hold.

2015 Petite Sirah / Nittany Epicurean
The wine showed a dark ruby color. Black cherry, raspberry preserves, vanilla, licorice and oak could each be found on the nose. Cherry cola, raspberry preserves, vanilla, licorice, oak and hints of mocha followed on the palate where the robust cola notes set the tone for complexity. The wine was full-bodied and exhibited great length along with soft tannins. This wine would be an ideal pair for a roast beef tenderloin with horseradish cream.
2015 Petite Sirah / 94 Pts / Wine Review Online
A sturdy but approachable Petite Sirah that is more than worthy of your cellar. Blackberry, bold wood spice, firm grip and a long finish where the fruit shines through – it’s a classic tale that fans of the grape will recognize. Bravo! A Platinum Award winner at the 2020 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.

Very dark garnet in color, this wine smells of black cherry and cassis. In the mouth, rich black cherry flavors have a decent lift thanks to good acidity, and hints of cola and tobacco as the wine finishes under a gauzy blanket of tannins. Dark and rich and thankfully not marred with excessive oak treatment.
2014 Latigo / 93 Pts / Wine Enthusiast
This beautiful Port-style dessert wine offers tempting, concentrated black-fruit flavors accented by flower and orange-peel notes. It is quite sweet and full in weight, feeling smooth and just a touch tannic in texture. Best through 2030.

Notes of blueberry, red cherry, oak spice, plum, cocoa, slight stem and savory herb. The fruit is rich on the palate with a good amount of oak spice and a hint of vanilla notes. Nice lift on the back palate with some brighter, tart red fruit and acidity. Tannins are present but rather easy going. Decant recommended.
