A solid Petite Sirah. You can use it in a wine education class as a textbook example of the variety. It’s full bodied, tannic and rich in blackberry, blueberry, creme de cassis, cola, grilled meat and black pepper flavors, enhanced by oak. Should age effortlessly, without gaining complexity, for many years. ——S.H.(2/1/2012)—— 90

Comes down on Petite Sirah’s more rustic side, with lots of crunchy acidity and chewy tannins framing berry, cherry, dark chocolate and tobacco flavors. It’s a full-bodied sipper that should live for many years, without necessarily developing bottle complexity. ——S.H.(4/1/2011)—— 86

Shows the thick, furry tannins Petite Sirah is known for, with some good black currant, anise and cedar flavors. Feels a bit sharp, with a cut of mint. Drink now.——S.H.(10/1/2010)—— 84
