EARTHQUAKE PETITE SIRAH - 2004

From Michael-David Vineyards, this Lodi, California Petite Sirah has an alcohol content of 15.5%.

TASTING NOTES:

Pitch black inky color with lots of sediment in the glass and blueberry on the nose. Blackberry, blueberry, smoke, cedar, hints of cocoa and a long black currant finish. Creamy vanilla with toasted oak nicely intertwined. Smooth with tremendous complexity and balance.

Excellent Petite Sirah that completely surprised me. Saturated, big and powerful. I love this wine. For around $22 a bottle, it is a steal. Highly recommend.
