<SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: georgia, serif"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 16px">One of the most intensely-colored grapes, our Petite Sirah is a deep, dark garnet purple, hinting at the extraction and depth of flavor waiting in the glass. Opening with huge aromas of ripe blueberry, nice oak and vanilla, the nose is loaded with layers of complexity; a little time and patience will reveal dried plum, black tea, anise, and delicate floral tones. The flavors echo the nose and are dominated by rich blueberry and black currant. The entry is full and soft with the tannin building slowly to a full, mouth-coating grip, all-the-while maintaining that fine texture for which Montelena is so famous. A very nice balance and good acid structure complete this powerful wine.  <FONT size=3>(<STRONG>2 Bottle Limit</STRONG>)</FONT></SPAN></SPAN><BR>
