Fresh, intact and integrated. Nice length and perfume, no notes really taken

Just has everything I want in Petite Sirah. Lush, vibrant, tannic, blackberry, pepper, spice, licorice. Incredibly impressed with what Mike and Kara did here.

Deep purplish-blue. Love the complexity of the nose on this bottling. Tons of blueberries, baking spices, toasted wood, savory herbs, burnt matches, burnt mulch, sweet smoke and purple floral notes. Heavy tannins (8.5/10) and full bodied. Loads of oak influence on the palate as well with toasted wood, cinnamon and vanilla. A little savory too as it aired out with some dark cherries and black fruits. Super long finish. Absolutely a killer bottle for under $50.00 with tons of aging potential. If you want to drink this now, decant for 6+ hours. Drink from 2018 till 2036.
