2018 Tip Top Vineyard Petite Sirah

The grapes for this Petite Sirah come from the highest point of Tip Top Vineyard, just touching 2000 feet in elevation. This west facing block, while one of the warmer spots on the property, is constantly buffeted by strong mountain winds pulled inland from the coast. This mix of sun and wind provides ideal growing conditions for our Petite Sirah, imparting strong flavors of plum and rhubarb with complimenting aromas of nutmeg, anise, and allspice showing through clearly.

Juicy enough to pop now, structured enough to lay down for a few years. Choose your own adventure...
