The 2020 Petite Sirah is fabulous. Inky dark fruit, chocolate, licorice, spice, menthol and new leather infuse the 2020 with notable depth and textural richness. The team at Fess Parker has done an exceptional job in taming the tannins. This opulent, full throttle Petite is the real deal. Drinking window 2024-2032.
