Wine 2, with rack of lamb. Decanted for 6+ hours. Brambly fruit, blackberry, briar, cocoa, and oak. Plenty of tannins to work through. These wines need a ton of time to really express themselves. Definitely not a pop and pour. Holding ‘15, ‘16, ‘17, ‘18, ‘19, and ‘20.
Gonna be a really fun vertical in 2030 and beyond.

Admirably restrained for a CA petit sirah. The fruit is there, but also a dusty, dry quality. Sweetish, full on the palate.
