Community Tasting Notes 9

    March 4, 2021 - Dark purple with a few ruby streaks. Blue fruit, cedar and cola nose. Medium bodied, bunches of blackberries, spices, black cherries, silky tannins, smoke, and a long, dry, blueberry and pepper infused finish. One of the best Petite Sirah's I've had.

    November 30, 2019 - Jammy fruit on the nose. Ripe strawberry acidity on the front of the palate with a finish that lingers and leaves you wanting more. Tannic and bold and structured it’s everything a Napa zin wants to be with none of the fluffy fattiness. This shit is nuts. Top 3% of wines I’ve had hands down. -Jase

    May 27, 2019 - I usually think of petite Syrah as being somewhat “edgy” but this bottle was quite rich and silky. At ten years old, it’s still got some life left in the cellar.

    May 20, 2019 - Last of 9 bottles. Decanted and consumed over the next few hours. Seemed to soften after about an hour but I still enjoy the robust tannins when first poured. Elegant and rich but beginning to show some age. Drink up.

    December 30, 2017 - opened it about an hour before tasting and then enjoyed in small glasses over another 2 hours between 3 of us. everyone was very impressed. it was very good to begin with but became beautiful over that time. smooth, rich, full of fruit.
