1999 Petite Sirah


Appellation: California
Owner/Winemaker: Chris Bilbro
Released September 1, 2002

Our Petite Sirah vineyards have matured sufficiently to add this wine to our offerings on a consistent basis. We added Mendocino fruit we have acquired for sometime. The resulting wine is dark purple in color with a deep broading nose of ripe black fruits, earth, hints of tar and oak. A solid structure frames a core of subtle dark berry flavors with ample tannin to warrant further aging.

Best consumed in 2 to 8 years

Grape Source: Sonoma and Mendocino County

Blend: 100% Petite Sirah

Oak Aging: 20 months French and American barrels
