The intense deep crimson color in the glass pulls you in, while the huge powerful nose captivates; layer on layer of spice, cedar, earth, and tobacco – all over a rich base of ripe black cherry, blackcurrants, cassis, and blueberry jam. The hook is set with the first whiff. Rich, round, juicy and mouth-coating, the palate delivers black cherry and black currant before moving on to brighter red fruits. More subtle tones of butterscotch, anise, and sweet oak complement the fruit beautifully. The huge classic structure of fine grain tannin and firm acidity persist all the way through to the clean crisp spicy finish.

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. (2 Bottle Limit)
