Reserve Petite Sirah 2014
The Story:
This elegant release of Petite Sirah was crafted with our Estate Wine Club in mind. Just 147 cases of this Reserve wine were produced from exceptional fruit grown in the California wine country. Enjoy this “gem” while you can. It is one of those special wines produced at Flat Creek that you will only find available from time to time.
The Tasting Notes:
This richly tannic wine expresses Petite Sirah’s traditional blackberry jam characteristics with an underlying smokiness. The bright acidity and supportive oak fill the mouth and balance the intense tannins. Enjoy this wine with venison, wild boar or other hearty meats.
