Bold blackberry, black cherry, a little chocolate up front, transitioning to vanilla and oak. Chalky and very lengthy finish, this is drinking GREAT right now! I was worried I may have waited too long, but certainly not the case. One of the tastier Petite Sirahs I've had. 91 pts.

No fluke, I'm a Petite Sirah fan...or at least PS from Lodi and specifically, M2. Wonderful cherry-filled nose with a hint of kerosene (not in a bad way). Full-bodied, fruit forward, lots of berries, cherries and oak, oh my. Yup, really liking this and yes, I agree, decanting is a good thing and on Day 2, even better.

Petite Sirah is becoming my new "go-to" wine, even the average ones are more interesting than an average Cab or Zin. This one doesn't disappoint and its a big wine, very fruit forward and little woody, solid tannins and a smooth finish. Its all working for me.

90+ decanted for 2 hrs and drank over a few days. Nice, bold and fruit forward ps with a nose of blackberry and a taste of dark berry, vanilla and some interesting woody notes. With decent tannins this should last several more years. For now, I recommend a good decant.

Nice Petite sirah in a bit of a fruit forward style, very nicely balanced tannins and an excellent dark berry finish.
