Inky ruby in color with firm tannins and fresh acidity, the Derby 2016 ‘Vineyard Select Series’ Petite Sirah hails from the famed Laura’s Vineyard in Paso Robles’ esteemed Estrella District. This beautiful wine opens with aromas of boysenberry jam, chocolate, and floral nuances before leading into a broad, ripe palate with flavors of dark cherry, cassis, candied licorice and a touch of black pepper. The tannins build slowly on the long, dark berry-dominated finish that leaves a hint of espresso behind. Enjoy!
