Clayhouse remains a relatively obscure California treasure, though it is well-known and respected in the Central Coast. This vintage of Petite Sirah from Clayhouse is a meaty gem that combines the fruit intensity of traditional petite with modern winemaking that produces supple tannins with a rounded mouthfeel. Bright blue fruits dominate, with a beautiful note of spice.
