The judges loved the Petite Sirah flights, including this tasty wine from a winery that is new to me. A generously fleshy expression, with approachable structure, forward berry pie aromas and flavors and a long finish where the pepper comes forward to balance the sweet fruit. Nicely done! A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Monterey International Wine Competition.
