I love Petite Sirah, with my only reservation being that I rarely see affordable bottles…at least on the East Coast of the USA. Here’s a delicious exception to the rule, one that shows plenty of flavorful berry fruit without any excessive oak or tannic harshness. Indeed, it is the rare Petite Sirah that one can sip without food and, likewise, without any pangs of conscience for financial reasons. A Platinum Award winner at the 2018 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge.
