Petite Sirah, also known as the Durif grape, is one of the biggest, most powerful and tannic wines produced in America. Petite Sirah is often used to literally ‘beef up’ other wines, such as thin Cabernets or wines that could use a little tannic boost. As a stand-alone varietal, it’s praised for being a chewy wine that defies its ‘little’ name. Our 2017 Petite Sirah was made from 100% Petite Sirah grapes from Heringer Estates in California. The wine shows a beautiful balance of tannins and rich flavors of oak, raisins and spice.
