Opens with initial touches of tar and struck flint that give way to black cherries and currants, wild thyme, pencil shavings, coffee grounds, and earth. The full-bodied palate is elegantly styled, its chalky tannins nestled into concentrated, perfumed flavors. Its vibrant acidity adds to its elegance, and it has a long, latent finish. Drink 2025-2040. —E.B
A 100% petite sirah that showcases the variety’s intensity without totally overwhelming your senses. A deep, inky color with potent blueberry syrup and black pepper aromas, then a flood of dark chocolate and blackberry jam that a firm layer of tannins keeps from being sweet. Full-bodied. It will truly benefit from aging. Best after 2029. —J.G.
What We Thought: Dark, dense, and full-bodied, this wine is filled with ultra-ripe blackberry and plum fruit, along with notes of vanilla, espresso, and dark chocolate supported by firm, drying tannins. Find big food; grilled meat would be good.
