Sipping Fine Wine

A blend of 74% Petite Sirah, 13% Syrah & 27% Zinfandel, aged in French oak (60% new). Dark Ruby with ripe dark fruit aromas with big spicy oak. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with notes of black pepper, leather and cacao. Well balanced, fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, vanilla and floral notes.
