Berghold Estate Vineyards, Petit Sirah 2013, Lodi, California
Tasting Note: This purple-colored petite sirah has a nose of blackberry fruit followed by black plum and some clove baking spice.
On the palate the wine shows black fruit on the attack followed by medium-plus tannin which characterizes the majority of the finish.
Subtle smokiness and pepper show as a minor component of the wine.
Bottle Note: Berghold wines are crafted from grapes grown in vineyards located at the base of the Sierra Nevada. The low-yield, flavor-concentrated grapes express the distinct quality of our vineyards and the Lodi appellation. A classic Mediterranean climate of warm days and cool nights produces rich, round flavors and unique character.
