RATINGS

94James Suckling

Crushed red and purple wildflowers, blueberries, cassis and leaves, all intermingled...a superbly juicy array of fresh and succulent dark plums and blackberries and delivers it all in effortlessly attractive mode.

93Vinous / IWC

Inky dark fruit and expressive savory notes infuse this bombastic, heady Petite with tremendous nuance and surprising freshness...superb.

92The Wine Advocate

...nose of candied cherry, violet, loamy earth and ash with white peach, potpourri, earth and oodles of black and blue brambly fruits at the core. Medium to full-bodied, it's lushly fruited with a mineral vein, firm, chalky-textured tannins and good freshness, finishing long on a savory note.

92+ Jeb Dunnuck

...powerful bouquet of spice plums, blackberries, scorched earth, and chocolate that gives way to a medium to full-bodied, ripe, opulent red with the depth and density...

TYPE

Red Wine, Petite Sirah

Despite its popularity, this grape is quite rare. Less than 10,000 acres are planted worldwide, with the bulk in California. In France, the grape is referred to as Durif. Not to be confused with Syrah, Petite Sirah is a cross of Syrah and Peloursin. The result is darker and fuller.
