Dark purple in color with a short purple rim.

Great fruity nose with black currants, blackberries, cherries, figs, licorice, earth, raisins, vanilla, sweet oak, spices, chocolates, mocha, coffee and cinnamon.

Full bodied, bold and smooth, with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, plums, cooked cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice cloves, spices, chocolates, tobacco, mocha, coke, earth, light vegetables and black pepper.

Long finish with round tannins.

A great Petite Sirah from the house of the Wagner family. Very fruity and enjoyable by itself or with food.

Needs a couple of hours to open up properly and show some tannins, but yummy right out of the bottle.

Showing nice complexity and a great mouthfeel. Big bold and beautiful.

Would benefit from another few years, to mature properly, and get more complex.

Easy drinking so watch out.

I paired it with small appetizers.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$60.

Full bodied nice quality cab. My brother in-law opened it before we had crab legs. Swing and a miss but this would pair nicely with some big beef.

Dark blueberry, cassis and blackberry notes with notes of tobacco and leather. Smooth and balanced tannins.
