Cloud Break Wines
Barrel Reserve California Petite Sirah
California, USA
Blackish purple in the glass. Abundant nose of… blueberry and black leather. Smells suspiciously like a California Syrah. On the medium full-bodies palate, the nose is echoed. Medium acidity and medium minus tannins; too light for even a lower grade iteration of the variety. Perhaps the PS this vintage was all needed to beef up Zin, leaving the PS needing beefing up of its own with Syrah. A good wine, but not the best representation of the grape as varietal labeled. Still, enjoy with your burgers or meat loaf. Drink now through 2022.

Nice mellow petite. Prune raisin notes. Good wine for the price.

Dark fruit flavors are almost juicy without being overly sweet, a smooth overall taste.
