Description

If you love a big, red wine, the 2016 Petite Sirah is a “must have.” Succulent and rich, its deep, dark purple inky color leads way to bold aromas of warm berry pie and loads of blueberry mixed with vanilla and a light pepper spice. Its full flavor of lush berries mixed with dark chocolate, warm cedar and vanilla gives way to a delightfully smooth finish with moderate tannins.

The Petite Sirah is a perfect wine to serve with dishes like veal saltimbocca or braised beef with winter vegetables. You can also try it with other dishes that contain a variety of mushrooms.

The Kautz Family grows these Petite Sirah grapes in their Teichert Ranch vineyard in the Sloughouse sub-appellation of the Lodi AVA. These soils contain large stones throughout, They are well-drained soils ideal for growing world-class wine grapes.

Blend: 90% Petite Sirah, 10% Zinfandel
