Vinum Cellars Description

Winemaker Notes

This Petite Sirah always has impressive color and our barrel aged, 25th year anniversary edition expresses this perfectly. Deep inky purple with teeth staining concentration. These qualities practically pre-describe both the aromas and palate of this wine. Immediately the aromas of this wine unveil boysenberry pie aromas suggestive deep plum and (more) ripe boysenberry with some wild huckleberry tones prevailing. The wine is refined with a rich French Oak barrel profile which is quite integrated in the mid-palate and a silky platform for the cassis spice and sappy vanilla flavors. Well structured and full bodied with elegant tannins allowing the flavors and character of the variety to shine through. The palate transitions nicely into pure blueberry which resonates on the palate as such, but moves subtly toward earth backed by vanilla, dark cocoa chocolate and backed with dry oak tannins with subtle coffee.

This Petite Sirah is both tannic and bold while maintaining a juicy, overripe profile displaying ample acidity to balance the tannins and fruit concentration making it multidimensional and food friendly. The finish is so supple and smooth that you will miss it when it is gone.

This wine pairs well with Mexican Carnitas tacos (barbecued pork) spiced with cardamom and spicy chiles served with salsa fresca. It’s great with anything off the grill from Tri-tip to chops to filet mignon and for vegetarians go for an impossible burger made with grains and/or mushrooms.

Notes of crushed dark berries, dried flowers, licorice and tar. Full-bodied with firm, grainy tannins and deep, succulent fruit. Lingering and dense.
