Mettler Family Vineyards
Estate Grown Lodi Petite Sirah
Deep inky in color with a short purple rim.
Wonderful, extracted nose of blackberries, sweet cherries, raspberry pie, dried figs, tobacco, cedar, spices, vanilla, cinnamon, graphite, coffee, mocha, earth, licorice, light alcohol and peppercorn.
Full bodied, bold, rich and jammy, with medium acidity and long long legs.
Dry and extremely fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet plums, cherry pie, vanilla, oak, licorice, milk chocolates, tobacco, spices, mocha, dark coffee and peppercorn.
Long finish with firm tannins and black pepper.
This Petite Sirah is awesome. Nicely balanced with great complexity and a wonderful mouthfeel. Very tasty, rich and extracted. Not for everyone, though.
Needs an hour to open up properly, but good right out of the bottle too. Could use a few more years in the bottle to mature.
Delightful and delicious.
15.5% alcohol by volume.

Excellent blend of dark plum with earthy tones on the upswing. These flavors give way to a metallic almost port-like finish. Very complex.
