Score 92/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2014

Good deep medium ruby. Musky, wild aromas of blackberry, violet and pepper complicated by saline and meaty nuances reminded me of syrah. Supple, juicy and sweet, showing a nicely refined texture to its flavors of blackberry, spices and pepper. Substantial but fine-grained tannins spread out to coat the palate on the lingering smoky finish. A distinctly savory style of petite sirah, and not a powerhouse of alcohol.

A great effort, the dense purple-colored 2010 Petite Sirah Reserve SNJ Vineyard reveals abundant floral notes intertwined with sweet blueberry and blackberry fruit, no evidence of wood, and a full-bodied, pure, intense palate. It has more texture than many Petite Sirahs. Enjoy it over the next 20 years. Tel. (707) 942-0859
