Petite Sirah
D. H. Lescombes 2008 Petite Sirah Limited Release (New Mexico)
The nose of this red offers up a bouquet of cherry and tobacco notes. The palate is dry, slightly hot with elegant tannins in delivering a savory finish. Flavors of black cherry, anisette and umami make up this Petite Sirah’s flavor profile. Drink now or hold for additional bottle aging.

Guenoc Petite Sirah 2006 (California)
The nose is comprised of cassis, black cherry, vanilla and herb notes. The palate is dry, balanced, with elegant tannins. Fruit forward, flavors of black cherry, licorice and minerality are enticing. A long finish will be enjoyed by all. Drink now or hold for more bottle aging. This sumptuous California Petite Sirah is a real bargain!

Stags Leap Petite Sirah 2005 (California)
The nose offers a bouquet cassis and cherry. The palate is tight with moderate tannins, as this wine is young but readily drinkable. Dry, fruit forward, flavors of unctuous dark cherry, cocoa and licorice await. Expect a long finish. Try this red with your favorite chocolate!

Rosenblum Petite Sirah “Heritage Clones” 2007 (California)
This a big, brawny brute of a wine! It has deep and complex notes of blueberry, blackberry and lavender that weave throughout the dark and tannic experience. This is not a meek wine, and shouldn’t be paired with meek food. Enjoy with a big, juicy peppered steak!
