Shows all the hallmarks of a fine young Petite Sirah. Dry and full-bodied, it’s a tannic, acidic wine in its youth, packed with muscular black currant, coffee, caramel and spicy chocolate flavors. Fans of the variety will love its typicity, and if you’re into aging your wines, this should develop for at least 10 years.——S.H.(5/1/2008)—— 88
