Mettler Family Vineyards, Lodi (California) Petite Sirah 2017

Jan 20, 2020

By Rich Cook

 Always my favorite from the Mettler line, and again in 2017 it shows proper character and weight, yet is quite approachable in its infancy – no colicky baby here – just everything that Petite Sirah lovers pine for.  Black and blue berries, fall spice and tamed tar notes park on the palate and outlast the meter.  No citation necessary.  Drink up or hold up to ten years at least.
