Note di degustazione
Inky ruby. Aromas of dark berry compote, licorice and printer's ink, with spice and violet nuances adding vivacity. Offers powerful cassis and bitter cherry flavors and a velvety texture, with a hint of smokiness building with air. Shows good heft and breadth on the finish, which lingers with good smoky intensity.

The 2009 Petite Sirah Reserve virtually oozes from the bottle with massive dark fruit, licorice, new leather and spices. It is a fairly domesticated Petite Sirah, but much of the richness has been achieved with a loss of varietal expression. This ripe, opulent wine should continue to drink well for at least a handful of years.
