Wine Enthusiast 82 pts - Steve HeimoffHeavy and soft, this Petite Sirah has sweet and sour flavors of cherries and mint.
Description:Thirty-two years after it was first produced by the Bogle family in 1978, Petite Sirah is today considered Bogle's ?heritage? varietal. Once again the trademark qualities shine through in a wine that is the perfect integration of fruit and oak. Full-bodied on the entry, aromas of black plum jam and toasty oak set the stage for what is to come. Vibrant boysenberries and luscious fruit are framed by serious tannins, while wisps of leather and vanilla seduce just enough. A final touch of acidity finishes the wine with a precisely balanced mouthfeel.
