2002 Pride Mountain Vineyards Petite Sirah

On the pop 'n pour this was rough and tannic. 90 minutes later, the chamber maiden turned into Cinderella. This is a massive wine, but silky smooth with mouth drying tannins on the finish.
Color is ink black with a deep currant-purple rim.
A nose of blackberry, strawberry, blueberry, and a hint of vanilla and licorice.
The mouth drying, massive palette with licorice, flowers, and currants. It lasts for several minutes.
The acidity makes the mouth salvate, but the enormous mouthfeel balances it. Truly a magnificent wine that will last for many, many, more years.

Delicious! A beautiful pairing with grilled chicken breast. Nose of currant, hints of smoke and vanilla. Palate with plenty of black and blue fruits a lances beautifully with enough acid. Long, long, finish.

Delicious! Black cherry and tobacco in the bouquet. The bouquet repeats on the palette, along with fig, with chocolate and a hint of vanilla on the finish. Beautifully balanced and food friendly.
Tannins in check, but the so dry the mouth.
