Coming in at a whopping 16.5 abv (yes, 16.5!), this Texas
Petite Sirah is quite bold and still packs in some good flavor for being just
over a decade old. Crafted from grapes grown at
Newsom Vineyard in the Texas High Plains AVA, the wine continues to reflect the
vineyard’s quality fruit. Not
much color has changed in this full bodied red wine as it still pours a good
solid purple hue and will wake up your wine senses with some fruity aromas.
What stands out now are notes of cherry and caramel with a little bit of
current. It still holds up as a lovely smooth wine and reveals subtle espressos
upon subsequent sipping. The high alcohol content is integrated quite well and
is a nod to the quality craftsmanship. The
smooth finish lingers beautifully, making each sip worth savoring.
Cheers!
