Tasting Notes:

Petite Syrah can offer a wonderful tasting experience. This full-body wine has intense coffee and caramel characters. There is a powerful attack of black cherry, earthy flavors, tobacco and tar. The wine has strong, woody tannins with a very long even finish. It displays excellent potential for aging.
