What’s Durif? Loved the combo with Australian Shiraz. Red and blackberry and cherry with a touch of oak and smoke. This was quite the fruit bomb with mild tannins and medium body. Please sir. . . I want some more. — 5 months ago

This Duriff (Petite Syrah) is actually produced in the Barossa Valley of Australia. Calabria is the name of family who founded the winery. A powerful and dense wine that is somewhat soft and subtle at the same time. Big aromas and flavors of blackberry, bakers chocolate and vanilla oak. Beautiful structure and depth. Firm grained tannins with a long warming finish. Solid. — 5 years ago

STWC. Sweet Black fruit and cassis aroma. Strong Ribena and blackcurrant ice cream on tip of tongue very bold tannins. Not subtle but I love this. Wonder if it ages? — 7 years ago

The winery is no longer operational so this was special as the the wine itself. There are plenty of this variety in the surrounding areas but none better than this. Drink now if you have any as it was perfect. — 6 years ago

Petite Sirah also known as Durif in Australia. Inky black in colour. Notes of raspberry on both nose and palate. A full bodied flavoursome wine at 14.5 % Alcohol. — 7 years ago

See previous review. I’m trying it again to see how it differed from the 2017 Durif from Berryessa Gap Vineyards. This Petite has Primitivo and Peloursin in as a field blend. The Durif is straight Petite Sirah.

This wine is juicy, big and complex. It’s not showing much softening from age, but it’s a lovely red as I mentioned in my previous review of the 2017. — 3 years ago

Is it amazing? Can’t say that. Is it really “durify”? Not that either. But it is pretty good. Low harshness and no sourness. — 5 years ago
