Another in the weeners search for Thanksgivingm juice and also for red for gifting. This lil' dude from Peterson Winery in Sonoma is a blend of 82% Carignane,6% Petite Sirah, 6% Syrah, and 6% Zin. Nice brite ruby, slight nose ar first but opened to show a spicy, meaty, berry nose. All came over on the palate. A very nice food wine thats' only shorty is a clipped finish. Definately in the running at 13 per clatter. No alc on bottle but seemed within reason. WW

and Galt. 4% from Mendocino’s Redwood Valley, sandy loam on heavy clay subsoils.
4% from Monterey County, clay/loam on fractured rock subsoils a few miles northeast of Soledad.
33% Cab Sauvignon
31% from Lake County, near Kelseyville, gravelly clay soils; 2% from Paso Robles, east of town, sandy clay and limestone soils.
8% Merlot
From a vineyard south of Soledad, alluvial, rocky soils.
8% Syrah
6% from Sonoma County, Knights Valley, mixed fractured rock in volcanic soils; 2%
from Monterey County, loamy alluvial soils.
6% Zinfandel
All from Amador County, near Plymouth. Silt/clay with small amount of cobbles, rocky subsoil.
