Abundance Petite Sirah 2004 – California
The dark garnet plum color of this wine is enough to get any connoisseur interested. On the nose, this Petite opens with slightly spice and coffee aromas and continues with ripe Bing cherries and blackberries. With further aeration of the wine, the aroma profile develops with more ripened fruit flavors overpowering the spice.
Allyson’s Pairing: Taleggio

This Petite Sirah is a dark and full-bodied, deeply concentrated wine, yielding aromas of ripe berry, coffee, grain and spice. On the palate it carries layers of ripe cherry, blackberry and plum.

Vinum Pets Petite Sirah 2006 – California
Deep candy apple red, translucent. Deep sweet fruit aromas (cassis, framboise, blueberry) are supported by toasty oak, cinammon, and roasted vegetables. The mouthfeel is gripping but not overpowering, a nice balance. The deep, concentrated, blue and red fruit flavors dominate the anything-but-petite finish.
Allyson’s Pairing: Raw Milk Cheddar
Spellbound Petite Sirah 2004 – California
The purple color catches you immediately and your eyes begin to taste. Aromas of violets and roses jump out of the glass. Flavors of fresh berries along with mocha and coffee dance on your palate. A broad structure with integrated, delicate tannins, create a great mouthfeel and an unmistakable desire for the next sip
