The Cache Creek Vineyards 2006 Petite Sirah comes from the Cache Creek Vineyard in Lake County, a ruggedly bucolic, mountain wine region just north of Napa and Sonoma Counties. Classic inky red in color, the Cache Creek 2006 Petite Sirah is a wonderful example of this characteristically intense varietal.
The nose is a complex blend of dried cherries, milk chocolate, vanilla, and bright blueberries. On the palate, this wine is intense, rich and nicely layered with flavors of blackberries, vanilla and oak. The ample but supple tannins give a robust mouthfeel and a velvety soft finish that lingers.
