Chavez-Leeds Vineyard Petite Sirah

Nice stuff- originally was thinking "enjoyable wine" - just started opening up right as I finished dinner - revised my score 4 pts higher- suggest 1 hr decant before enjoying.

I love straight petite syrahs. It was a good one to start the night with. Don't remember a lot of specifics other than that it was good.

Flint, stewed black fruit, some baking spice. Medium length finish, scant tannins.

Very smooth for a petite syrah but not very complex. However I liked it

Really good. Cherries and cola on the nose. Really balanced: enough acidity to cut through stuff tannins. Soft cherry and vanilla fruit; a little cedar; richly flavored.
