Origin: Napa Valley, USA
Grapes: Petite Syrah
Single-vineyard bottling from St. Helena, this is a much lighter style of Petite Sirah which still has the crunchy black fruit typical of the variety. The fermentation is whole cluster, which gives the wine a smooth, spicy mouthfeel with a tannic grip, fresh acidity, and an overall great structure with aromas of black cherry, plum, olives, and black coffee. Very tasty.
A cuvée made from 100% Petite Sirah (also known by the name Durif, created from an accidental crossing of Syrah and Péloursin) from vines planted on sandy clay soils. From a vineyard in St. Helena, in Napa Valley, farmed organically, and with manual harvesting. In the winery: maceration and fermentation of whole clusters, with indigenous yeast, and a gentle pressing. Matured on its lees, in French oak barrels that have seen 5-8 wines. Neither filtered nor fined, and racked only at bottling.
