Rich, bold fruit and earthy notes. Felt close to prime. Paired well with BBQ chicken & ribs.

Slightly too dense for me, but will please Petite Sirah drinkers. Big black fruit and think. Nose is too dense.

Approachable and decent length of finish. More than lived up to expectation of first wine opened on a celebratory evening.

Solid wine with deep flavors....nothing extraordinary, but at half price a value buy!

Big fruit and dense. I enjoyed with short ribs and my husband liked it with a Bolognese.
