Pours a deep red. Not as dark if a color that I would expect from an Arroyo PetiteSirah. Herbal notes with some mint accents highlight the aromas. Leather, dark berries and chocolate fill the taste. Not as bold as I would expect. A little white pepper and some drying tannins on the finish.

Aromas of eucalyptus, tar, and cocoa. Lighter that expected for a PS but slight a rich body. Didn't care for the sharp finish, however.

Deep purple color leather and savory meat chocolate and vanilla. Have loved this wine in the past but it does not seem to have held up.
