2020 Petite Sirah
This Petite Sirah is from our CCOF-Certified organic Blind Faith and Double Black Vineyards that are nestled on the east side of the Paso Robles AVA. Petite Sirah is typically a tannic, bold wine, but long, hot days in Paso Robles with cooler evenings creates concentrated flavors and high acidity to balance the high sugars. Enjoy now or lie down in your cellar for aging
The 2020 Petite Sirah was sourced from our organically certified Estrella district vineyards. Located on an elevated ridge this vineyard has consistently provided clean well ripened fruit for intense red wines. Petite Sirah can make balanced, highly structured wines if the fermentation is managed well. We like to press from the skins while the wine is still sweet to extract maximum flavor and color while avoiding excessive tannins which can throw off the balance. The wine then ferments dry before moving it to small American oak barrels. The variety is known for its dense color and high amount of tannic structure. It makes a good complement to food of a similar weight.
