A very enjoyable Petite Sirah from lake county, California.
Dark ruby in color and medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Fruit forward with black fruits and chocolate notes, vegetables, bitter herbs, olives and black pepper.
Nice finish with fine grained tannins, tangy raspberries and bitter vegetables. A little bitter on the ending.
Might be better in a year or two when much of the bitter notes will hopefully be gone.
14.3% alcohol by volume.
