Cura Annonae – 2020; The Cause Urban Winery; Houston, Texas

Getting to try one of a winery’s first releases is always a big treat. This mighty Petite Sirah was sourced from Hoover Valley Vineyards (now Uplift Vineyard) of the Texas Hill Country AVA. This limited production has so much to offer. It is rich in cherries and plums with a bit of pepper for added pizazz. This wine also has a great mouthfeel along with a good balance between the marriage of acids and tannins. Its name pays homage to the underlying cause that the winery supports. This label donates funds to support the local food banks and as the ancient name that honors the Roman goddess Annona implies, is about giving food to help others. Enjoy this one well and share with a thankful heart.
