1 person found it helpfulFeb 21st, 2014Just tried the first release of Frank Family Petite Sirah, vintage 2010. Used to only be used as a blending agent w/their Cabs. Great structure with balance fruits, tannins, and acid. Blackberry, blueberry, red currants, and fig. A real teeth stainer. A gift from Richard Frank himself. 12.19.13.

Sep 23rd, 2023Deep ruby color, gasoline smell on the nose? Plum, spice, fairly medium plus tannins, not super acidic. Pairing with a meatlovers pizza, hopefully it goes well!
