PETITE SIRAH 2011 Napa Valley |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
STAGS' LEAP WINERY |
Fairly deep intense purple colour. Fairly intense, complex, baked, ripe plum-cherry nose with some slight mocha-chocolate notes. Dry, medium-full bodied, well structured, harmonious, ripe plum-cherry puree flavours with some mocha-chocolate notes on the lingering, slightly spicy, crisp, cedar-tinged finish. Similar to the recommended 2009 (***) released on September 28, 2013 at $39.95. |

TASTING NOTE: There are small percentages of Syrah, Grenache, Carignane, Mourvèdre and Viognier in this Petite. Combined, they add to a greater whole of inky, coffee-mocha flavor around soft, restrained tannins. Blackberry and blueberry fruit also figure prominently, as good as your grandmother's pies.
