IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

The 2016 Petite Sirah Barberis Vineyard sports a very deep purple-black color and nose of black tar, licorice and fertile loam over a core of baked blackberries and black plum preserves plus a waft of bouquet garni. Full-bodied and jam packed with black fruits and earthy flavor layers, it has a firm, chewy backbone and a long, anise-laced finish. 192 cases were made.

Dense with purple and blue fruits, and tannins that feel more like silk sheets, it’s a mouthful of seduction. It’s voluptuous and playful acidity emanates from its core, and keeps you coming back for another sip… after sumptuous sip.
