Older and interesting wines with the Meat Fairy at Châteauneuf-du-Joe. (Dougherty's.): Another older pleasant surprise. I'm usually not a big fan of Petite Sirah, but this is lovely. Aromatically ebullient and complex with spice cake, pipe tobacco, dusty earth and prunes. Slightly drying and coarsely textured, as should be expected, with like flavors as aromas. Very tasty with more life ahead. Solid B+.
