A little heat in the nose. Rich mid palate with hints of vanilla and dried fruit. Nice tannic grip with enough acidity to drink now, but looking forward to drinking this one in 10 to 15

The scent of nail polish remover was always lurking in the background of the aroma and was rather distracting. Huge tannins. Hulk sized tannins to the point of being out of balance. I would say it is a complete coin flip if this wine will get better or worse with age.

Inky, gritty and jammy. Serviceable, but not in my top 10 petite syrah's

Excellent @AlexanderValley #PetiteSirah! Dark, powerful and complex. Bittersweet cocoa, dark berry and earth. Spend some time with this one and the wine will evolve in your chalice!

Pretty killer value for $35. Most of their wines suck (IMO anyway), but this is good. Full bodied with dark cherries, olives, and spice. Nose and finish is a little light or would have rated higher
