This '12 Petite Sirah was pure silk but it still had a really solid body... My tastebuds are slightly confused, but happy.

Thin, watery mouthfeel. Tasted from magnum. Manipulated nose. Already over the hill. Sad for an overpriced 8 year old wine.

Aromas of ripe bramble berry, fig jam and cherry. Flavors of blackberry, coffee and cherry cola. Medium finish, not overly tannic. A little too fruity for my palate but a lovely wine if that's what you like.

Even a 2001 was a bit too young to drink.

2001 Petite Syrah, deep purple, very complex that continues to age to perfection. Blackberry, leather minerals, finishing with good tannins, this was my last bottle.

On the nose you smell black olives, blackberries, dark cherries, cocoa, tannic acid, with a nice oak finish, this was excellent!

2009 Vintage - dark fruits, silky smooth finish. Lots of cassis and earthy goodness!

2009 vintage. Dark fruits without assertive tannins, but present nonetheless. Silky smooth finish.
