Petite Sirah 2019

Amazing wine takes time. On the north slope of HighValley, on Franciscan soils, lies a small 2.7 acre block in the middle of Betsy’s Vineyard. These 30+ year old vines produce small clusters of our most mouthwatering Petite Sirah.

Aromas
of
dried
blueberries
with
under-tones
of
Dutch
chocolate
and
vanilla,
followed
by
flavors
of
dense
fruit,
earthy
dried
herbs,
oats,
molasses
and
warm
spices.

An
El
Niño
weather
pattern
brought
a
wet
winter
and
spring
to
the
North
Coast
in
2017.
A
heat
spike
in
June
advanced
the
white
grapes
and
prompted
harvest
in
late
August.
Once
the
white
grapes
were
in,
cooler
weather
set
in
and
gave
us
a
delayed
start
to
the
red
grape
harvest
two
weeks
later.
About
5%
of
the
vintage
was
in
when
the
fires
in
Sonoma,
Napa
and
Lake
Counties
began.
We
were
luckily
unscathed.
