Delicious wine Alert!
90% Petite Sirah and 10% Syrah. Very dark black/purple in the glass. Viscous and full bodied with blackberry and blueberry flavors and hints of white pepper and toasted oak. Very approachable, with reasonable medium grained tannins, for a Petite Sirah at this stage and seems to have the stuffin to go 5+ more. Nice linguring finish. 14.6% Alc/vol.
$16.

Drew,
Tannin?
- Drew - 11-27-2005
Most young Petite Sirahs that I've drunk have had lots of tannins but this one drinks like it has some wiskers on it, in WW language. If that's what your asking.

I missed your reference to medium grained tannins. The eyes are the third thing to go...
