March 20, 2024 - PnP. Could be a 92. Still very tannic: I suggest to wait another three years or so. Medium body. Tastes of orange peel, citrus. Sharp edges. Interesting, but I am hoping it will develop into something bettter.
February 8, 2024 - Drinking superbly right now. Very well balanced, medium weight on the palate, smooth texture with well rounded tannins. Notes of red berries..just a terrific wine.
October 14, 2023 - Thought this would be a little on the young side but it was surprisingly balanced and well integrated. Bigger wine but very smooth with softer yet present tannins, lovely fruit. Very pleasant and went great with a ribeye with aji amarillo sauce and other Peruvian cuisine accompaniments.
May 6, 2023 - Still pretty young. High alcohol content. A bit of a mouthful
March 27, 2023 - Very good - intense fruits and med+ acidity but not overwhelming and teeth staining as I have found some other petite sirahs (not a ton of experience with these). Anyways also worked well w pasta bolognese on day 2
March 13, 2023 - I am biased toward anything from Ridge and this PS did not disappoint. Love this varietal - big and bold but elegant and complex. Tannins and acidity in perfect balance.
March 8, 2023 - Frais, franc et bien équilibré.
Des cerises et des bleuets avec un
peu de réglisse et des herbes.
Super long et bien souple.
Très bon.
January 2, 2023 - This is excellent - I prefer Old World wines, but Ridge Zins and Petite Sirah's are very high quality. Sure, you can age this for 10-15 years... but today is just as good.
Big in stature, elegant in delivery. Have no fear!
November 28, 2022 - Paired with reverse sear ribeye, potato hasselback gratin, and ceaser salad.
This wine continues to impress. Lots of blackberry, oat and vanilla on the nose. Pepper, plum and blackberry on the pallet. Dry and tannic.
November 17, 2022 - Consumed with Oklahoma smash burgers and arugula salad.
Nose: plum and oak. Taste: raspberry, peoper and tobacco. Finish: bold and tannic with a decent amount of acid.
