2021 Mounts Petite Sirah PETASERA Estate Grown Dry Creek Valley
Tasting Notes
Rich, deep black, staining color. Dark blackberry, violets, and earth aromatics are abundant. Flavors follow into sugar plum, blue and black berry fruit, savory meat, anise, and a bit of dark chocolate. Bold tannins, massive complexity, and chewiness are present in youth and will soften into a silky texture and finish with cellar aging.Vineyard Designation
