2003

2003 Petite Sirah
"Dense ruby/purple color is followed by brodding notes of earth, black fruits and spice, a good palate texture, and fresh acidity. While there is little depth or finish, Petite Sirah's classic peppery, black character is well displayed. Even though it is superficial, it is well made and ideal for drinking over the next 2-3 years."   86 Points
