Sol Rouge, Lake County (California) Petite Sirah 2011

Aug 13, 2014

By Robert Whitley

Your chances of landing a bottle of this wine are probably fairly slim, but on the off chance you should stumble across this delightful Petite Sirah you should know it’s a must-buy. Soft and supple in a way Petite Sirah isn’t supposed to be, the Sol Rouge is inviting and exotic, with intense aromas of dark berries and chocolate, hints of spice, and smooth tannins. The big negative: Only 75 cases made.
