Whoa. This is not for the feint of heart. Petite Sirah from Rockpile is no joke and this is one of the best you will ever taste. It’s so darn good we wanted to keep it ourselves but we made fewer than 200 cases.
Darker than a thousand midnights, this opaque beauty shows striking intensity throughout. Ripe blueberry, pomegranate and blackberry make up the deep core of this wine with nice oak influences of clove and sweet cedar. Muscular tannins give way to a surprising smoothness for such a massive wine We called it The Lion Tamer for a reason. It’s huge and powerful and you may need a whip to keep your friends away from it.
Crack that whip!
