Violet and black cherry fill the nose with this enticing Petite Sirah/Petit Verdot blend. Dark plum, vanilla bean, and a dusting of cocoa powder develop on the mid palate with evident floral aromas. Ready to drink now, but this wine will age nicely in the bottle over the next year or two. Like elephants whose size is imposing, Petite Petit is large! Offering a joyous explosion of color and fun, it is a substantial, dense, full-bodied, whopper style of wine loaded with pure black fruit and vanilla flavors that coat the palate. It reveals remarkable richness with a finish that is slightly dry and seems to linger.
Editors Choice. Battalions of tannin accompany ripe fruit flavors in this bold, full-bodied wine made from Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot. A supportive wrap of astringency from layers of fine tannin bolsters the rich blackberry and blueberry flavors, while flashy, spicy, smoky, new-oak accents infuse everything from the aroma to the finish.
Toasted coconut and vanilla-scented wild berry fruit flavors have a candied edge, with tomato leaf and smoke accents on the appealingly tannic finish. Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot. Drink now. 60,000 cases made.
