Teeth-grabbing tannins help define this satin-lined, estate grown red. Notes of brambly wild blackberries follow, along with dried violets. Espresso, along with grapey flavors are delightful, and well partnered. A serious, muscle-bound Petite Sirah sporting mineral finesse.

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.

The Petite Sirah offers lively, fresh aromas and flavors of spicy boysenberry, black cherry and herbs. It’s silky on the attack with a chewy density on a fruit driven, richly flavored palate. Finishes with firm, round but somewhat dry tannins.

Seductive oak-spice aromas and a rich but gentle palate make this full-bodied wine compelling and delicious. Cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg and cigar-box scents lead to ripe blueberry and mocha flavors and relatively soft tannins.

This wine has aromas of freshness, ripe dark berries, toasted oak, coriander, brown sugar, and notes of Sandalwood on the nose; the flavors are concentrated, and Black currant confiture, dried marjoram, and Black licorice are interlaced with black tea leaves, green olive, and supple silky dry tannins. Decant and pair with grilled bison burgers.

This is a fantastic Petite Sirah from Lake County. Nearly oxblood in color, aromas of ripe blackberry and nutmeg give way to nuanced flavor profile. Notes of deep, dark chocolate, raspberry and spice give way to rich, velvety tannins. Pair with grilled steak with peppercorn sauce or chocolate souffle.

This full-bodied and impressive wine matches the intense tannins of the variety with equally intense fruit flavors for good balance on a very big frame. Bright blueberry and blackberry aromas lead to effusive black-fruit and dried fruit flavors, accented by dark chocolate.
