Wilson Creek Barrel Reserve Petite Sirah 2005 750ml

Petite Sirah's big taste belies its little name. Petite Sirah is not to be confused with Syrah, another grape altogether. Petite Sirah is typically lusty and lively, and this wine is delicious, dark, inky and muscular, with lots of blackberry and dark cherry fruit. It is rich and ripe, yet classy, graceful, and elegant at the same time. Let this big wine breathe a bit before drinking. It will store nicely for many years but it good to drink now. Enjoy this big and beautiful wine with anything off the grill as well as with marinara sauces and fine cheeses.
