    Red Zeppelin Winery
    2009 Black Zeppelin Petite Sirah
  • Organic - Made from View Label
  • Appellation: Monterey Red Zeppelin Winery (Cayucos, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Stillman Brown
  • A new varietal of flagship wine, nine barrels of this Black Zeppelin were made from a vineyard of clone 3 Petite Sirah in the Hames Valley in southwestern Monterey County, and was blended with a single barrel from the Brady Vineyard in Paso Robles. The Hames Valley is normally one of the warmer sub-appellations of Monterey; however the 2009 vintage was cooler, enabling the fruit to keep more of its blackberry and plum flavors. The Brady wine added structure and a different type of oak flavor; ... ...read more

    Opolo Vineyards
    2005 Petite Sirah View Label
  • Appellation: Paso Robles Opolo Vineyards (Paso Robles, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Rick Quinn and Dave Nichols
  • Impressively extracted, this inky, intense wine is sure to please the Opolo "Bigger is Better" crowd. Aromas of chocolate, blackberries, graham crackers with a touch of cinnamon. The palate is greeted by gobs and gobs of dark, jammy fruit unfolding in waves of chocolate, spice, toasty oak and vanilla. The long lingering finish is soft and round but don't let this gargantuan wine fool you, it has plenty of dry tannins to satisfy the big red wine drinker and collector in you.

    Flying Horse Winery
    2006 Napa Valley Petite Sirah View Label
  • Appellation: Napa Valley Flying Horse Winery (Oakville, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Dennis Malbec
  • Our first vintage from our Petite Sirah block has proven what a good fit we have found for our site. Beautiful to look at, rich saturated crimson, with alluring aromas of cooked blueberry, dried cherry, allspice and earthy loam combine with fresh peppercorn and dried rose petal. Structured and compact in the mouth, this wine begs for decanting and a bit of time in the glass to fully open and express itself. Fine grain tannins support a well defined mid palate finishing with dark roasted coffee a... ...read more

    Van Ruiten Family Winery
    2009 Petite Sirah View Label
  • Appellation: Lodi Van Ruiten Family Winery (Lodi, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Ryan Leeman
  • Petite Sirah grapes have been grown in the Lodi area for over a century and have historically been used as a red blending wine. Today’s wine drinkers have discovered the distinct characteristics of this varietal; dark hues, exotic aromas of allspice, plums, and green tea, with flavors of black cherries and ripe plums. Exhibiting generous tannins and a lengthy finish, this Petite Sirah should benefit from several years of aging, yet make a terrific accompaniment to a hearty stew, lamb, or wild... ...read more

    Il Gioiello Winery / Morse Wines
    2004 Petite Sirah View Label
  • Appellation: Amador County Il Gioiello Winery / Morse Wines (Fiddletown, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: David Fenech
  • Rich purple colors represent the trademark of Petite Sirah. Concentrated fruits of blackberry, boysenberry, and plum, with hints of black pepper, mushroom and vanilla, and a touch of mineral character provided by Terroir. Barrel aging for 18 months added vanilla and toasty oak notes, with a complex/full mid palate, balanced tannins, and a long finish that lingers of lush fruit.

    Bogle Vineyards
    2006 Petite Sirah View Label
  • Appellation: California Bogle Vineyards (Clarksburg, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Thirty years after it was first produced by the Bogle family in 1978, Petite Sirah is today considered Bogle’s “heritage” varietal. Overwhelming notes of ripe summer boysenberries and blueberries resonate from the glass before you can even pick it up. The trademark inky and jammy tones fill the mouth with black fruit: berries, currants and spice. Toasty oak surrounds the wine, adding subtle hints of cocoa and leather, lingering long after the sip is gone. The firm tannins make this a wine ... ...read more

    Gelfand Vineyards
    2006 Petite Sirah View Label
  • Appellation: Paso Robles Gelfand Vineyards (Paso Robles, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • A descendant from the Rhone Valley in France, this grape is now grown predominantly in California. The word "petite" in its name is very much a misnomer, as these wines are anything but small. They tend to be big, bold, muscular wines. Ours is even bigger! It is inky dark and very rich, and has quickly become our signature grape. Goes well with everything, but is definitely not a breakfast drink.

  • This Petite Sirah is dark purple in color with black cheery and berry aromas. The nice vanilla oak and cedar compliments this well-balanced and soft tannin wine. Delicious on its own or will accompany any roasted or smoked meats, grilled Ahi, Salmon, and spicy dishes.

  • Winemaker: Nils Venge
  • Made from estate-grown grapes on our high altitude mountain vineyard on a small knoll of white chalk soil at an elevation of 2300 feet, this wine is inky black-- nearly opaque--with unbridled richness, offering up deep, high-tone black fruits, chipped stone and violet characteristics. Pair this wine with steak, lamb and game.

Pairs well with big foods like short ribs, lamb or venison, but is elegant enough to work with lighter fare such as herb-roasted chicken. (GOLD MEDAL - BEST OF SHOW)

    Saracina Vineyards
    2005 Saracina Petite Sirah View Label
  • Appellation: Mendocino County Saracina Vineyards (Hopland, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Alex MacGregor
  • Our 2005 Petite Sirah exhibits an inky blue/black color and vivid black raspberry, blackberry and floral notes. It is a big wine but surprisingly civilized and supple on the palate. This wine is accessible now but could easily be held for a generation. With fruit of this quality, winemaking becomes almost an afterthought.
  • Acclaim: Strongly perfumed aromas of ripe raspberry, blackcurrant, Asian spice. Medium in weight. Surprising elegance for such flavor impact. Smooth tannins add gentle grip to long, juicy finish. A very impressive, almost civilized rendition of petite sirah. 91 Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar

  • The senses are tempted by an array of black raspberry, spice, coffee, cocoa, cola and white pepper. The palate is filled with ripe boysenberry, black raspberry, plum and sweet black cherry and firm tannins, with a hint of smoke and dark chocolate. Enjoy this wine along with a nice grilled steak, baked potato with all the fixings, and good friends. This is a wine that can please now, as well as age out for many years to come.

    Wood Family Vineyards
    2009 Petite Sirah, Livermore Valley
  • Appellation: Livermore Valley Wood Family Vineyards (Livermore, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Rhonda Wood
  • Our Petite Sirah is from the Casa de Vinas Vineyard and has some of the thickest skins of all Vitis Vinifera grapes. This unique feature of PS grapes makes it possible to create a wine that is so dark purple it is almost black. But hand in hand with color anthocyanins go grape tannins, so waiting to pick the fruit until these tannins are sufficiently ripe is the key to creating a wine that is ready to drink when the fruit is at its brightest.

    True to its origins, this year’s petite is s...
