  11/17/2018 - srh Likes this wine:

  Sat, 11/17/18, $2 Tasting (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): Typically, 55% Petite Sirah & 45% Merlot fermented traditionally in open concrete tanks, then aged 12 mos in used FR & AM oak barrels.
  
  N: Attractive, Very RIPE, poss jammy, brambleberries; Allspice with swirling?
  
  P: LM body; RNDISH wntry with NICE, almost swtish frt met by some astringent pucker which pretty much maintains into the LONG, pleasant finish with a tangy/swtness (40:60) & only OCCASIONAL *glimpses* of a very, VERY slight bitterness to the dusty tannins. Ok now with food, but deserves/needs through '19, then drinking through '22. Nicely done in a style NOT atypical for the appellation. My VG+, poss more. [I saw no other sources with which to compare this vendor's $12.95.]
