2017 The Crusher Petite Sirah California
Winemaker Notes
The Crusher Petite Sirah is a deep, inky color with bold aromas of boysenberry, blackberry, and fig jam. The inviting aromas lead to a medium palate with a core of juicy fruit flavors, toasted hazelnut and baking spice notes. The wine spends 10 months in a combination of French, American and Hungarian oak, giving the final blend a soft texture with fine, well-integrated tannins. This hearty wine leaves a lush, lingering finish.
Food Pairing – BBQ meats and slow-roasted lamb
Blend: 87% Petite Sirah, 7% Syrah, 4% Tempranillo, 3% Malbec, 2% Merlot, 2% Zinfandel
