This Petite Sirah is big, bold, and powerful, yet nicely balanced. Swirl, smell, and note the complexity as your palate savors the robust tannins. It has a rich, deep color, and full-bodied flavors of blackberries, spice, chocolate, and just a hint of black pepper.
A rich nose of Luxardo cherry, red currant, and star anise is a prelude to the morello cherry and plum on the palate. These red fruits are highlighted by the bright acidity and fine powdery tannins that provide great tension and length.
Pair this grand wine with barbequed steak, beef bourguignon, spicy chili, curry, mushrooms, root vegetables, bleu cheese, asiago, or Limburger.
