I just wrote “approachable and age worthy” about another Concannon Petite Sirah — something that’s clearly ingrained in the winemaking methodology. Fresh citrus character in the finish brightens the black and blue fruit, and the spice load is just right for the fruit. Nice! A Platinum Award Winner at the 2018 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
