COMPOSITION
75% Petite Sirah, 25% Zinfandel
TASTING NOTES Our 2015 Petite Sirah is dark and brooding with blue fruit and jasmine aromas. On the palate, flavors of plum, pomegranate, spice and cocoa powder mingle into a supple and lengthy finish marked by refined tannins and a lift of mouthwatering acidity.
WINEMAKING NOTESThe 2015 vintage in Napa Valley was outstanding, albeit a little smaller than we would have liked. A virtually rain-free Spring awoke the vines early, and ripening was accelerated by a warm summer. Harvest was just slightly ahead of “normal” with below average yields of richly flavored, strikingly balanced fruit.
