Wine Review: This very dark ruby colored Petite Sirah opens with a fruity and fragrant mild boysenberry bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, and very approachable. The flavor profile is a fruit forward blend of mild red raspberry and black cherry with notes of black pepper throughout. The finish is dry and its sticky tannins are noticeably present for a while. This Petite would be a perfect pairing for a big pulled pork sandwich. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The 2006 Two Angels Petite Sirah is "dark as the night" and boasts savory aromas of dark berry, violets, pomegranate, tamarind and roasted game. Abundant fruit flavors are nicely integrated with toasted oak and roasted coffee undertones. What is especially alluring, given the dark color and ample, rich tannins, is the round – almost silky – mouthfeel and the pleasing, lingering finish.
