J Dusi Wines, Paso Robles (Central Coast, California) Petite Sirah 2021

 This inky black wine is stunning with an initial aroma of fresh blueberry, mocha, spice, and a floral component.  Medium bodied and plush, it is pure velvet on the palate with good acidity and hints of tea and light oak in the long aftertaste which has a touch of chocolate to bring it to a resounding finale.  There is not a rough edge anywhere.  It was fermented by native yeasts and barrel aged for 18 months in French and American oak, 25% new.  100 cases were released in October, 2023.
