The Sawyer vineyard is located on the bench lands of western Dry Creek Valley at an elevation of 500 feet. Inky and smooth, this Petite Sirah is known for having a muscular backbone and lingering tannins.
Critial Acclaim: Wine & Spirits Magazine | "Beeswax florals surround the blackberry-jam flavors of this wine. The tannins are rustic and substantial, adding scents of game and earth without blocking out a red tone of fruit that lasts in the end. Light in color, deliciously lush, this is a petite that’s accessible now, with a few hours in a decanter and grilled meats for dinner. It will also take well to cellar time." —J.G. (150 cases)
