Stags' Leap Petite Sirah 2018

Grape Varietals: Petite Sirah

Wine Region: Napa Valley, California

Tasting Notes:  The Stags' Leap 2018 Petite Sirah exudes strong notes of blackberry, blueberry and black cherry fruits interwoven with more savory notes of black pepper and cocoa power. On the palate, juicy flavors of creamy cassis, macerated blackberry, cherry kirsch, black licorice, and peppery plum envelope the rich, saturated mouthfeel. This wine is smooth and silky with velvety tannins and a generous lengthy finish, encouraging you to enjoy it now, but has the depth and complexity to age for many years to come.

Food Pairing: Consider roasted or barbecued beef that is well-spiced.
