Description

This Petite Sirah always has impressive color and this entry is no different. Dark, inky purple, plum (almostblack) color. The intense aromas express blueberry and huckleberry fruit notes. The wine is refined with a rich French Oak barrel profile which is quite integrated in the mid-palate and a silky platform forthe cassis spice and sappy vanilla flavors. The wine is well structured and full bodied with elegant tanninsallowing the flavors and character of the variety to shine through. The finish is rich with dark chocolate,blackberry and creamy Tahitian vanilla. 

This wine pairs well with Mexican Carnitas tacos (barbecued pork) spiced with cardamom and spicy chiles served with salsa fresca. It’s great with anything off the grill from Tri-tip to chops to filet mignon and for vegetarians go for an impossible burger made with grains and or mushrooms.
