Lisa Perrotti-Brown - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"The 2016 Petite Sirah Barberis Vineyard sports a very deep purple-black color and nose of black tar, licorice and fertile loam over a core of baked blackberries and black plum preserves plus a waft of bouquet garni. Full-bodied and jam packed with black fruits and earthy flavor layers, it has a firm, chewy backbone and a long, anise-laced finish. 192 cases were made."
Product Description:
"The most beautiful things in life are often so ephemeral they defy the complacency of simple words or explanation. This vintage of dry farmed Petite is so beautifully crafted and so delicious, it is in short, a thing of pure, unadulterated beauty. At once deep, dark, layered and brooding, it’s also at the very same time, bright, floral and oh-so-sexy. Dense with purple and blue fruits, and tannins that feel more like silk sheets, it’s a mouthful of seduction. It’s voluptuous and playful acidity emanates from its core, and keeps you coming back for another sip… after sumptuous sip." - Winery
