Has a harder edge than some of the other petite arvines I have been trying. More minerality, and more oak. But no prominent vanilla and less rounded mouthfeel but still dense. I like it, seems more serious. — 10 days ago
This is a very tasty Petite Sirah from California.
Big and bold with medium acidity and nice mouthfeel.
Dry and very fruity.
Showing black fruits with chocolate notes, tobacco, vanilla, licorice, wood, Mediterranean spices and peppercorn.
Tasty and spicy.
14.5% alcohol by volume.

Strawberry and stony nose
Some stone fruit, medium body, high salinity, softer tannins, tinges of grit on the finish.
Overall a very pleasant wine, and one worth getting into.
I have been loving exploring the wines of Mexico for some time now - this holds its own in the foray. — 16 days ago
Smooth and supple with a great flavor. We typically go for the big bold cabs and this is a great treat but still bold in its own way. Delicious drink by itself red. — 7 days ago

Sickness. Citrus, tangerine, insane spice, orange rind, matchstick, perfumed like nothing else. Mineral and airy. So beautiful. 9.5 on the nose. Palate is brilliant. Chewy, textured and pure. Amazing purity. Nimble yet textured. So elegant. Love petit arvine. So complex and textured. Long finish. So nimble. Great wine. Terrific grip. Such purity. Could be a 9.5 but needs more density. — 13 days ago
