This Petite Sirah is so dark you could use it as ink to dip your pen in. Very fruity with plush black cherry, cassis and blueberry and a hint of vanilla mid-palate. But the finish may be where it's at, as it ends with a mocha flavor that really sticks around for a while. Lay it down for a few years, but if you pop the cork now make sure you decant it.
