Wine Review: This slightly opaque and deep purple colored wine opens with a very fragrant black plum, mulberry, and dark chocolate bouquet with hints of baking spice and blackberry. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with lively medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel and balanced and bright for mainly a Petite Sirah blend. The flavor profile is a stewed black plum and mulberry blend with notes of stony minerality and cedar. We also detected hints of chocolate and caramel. The finish is dry, and its bright acidity and flavors linger for a while. This red blend went well with barbecue grilled steak tips. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: The 2019 vintage of The Stand provides a uniquely elegant expression of Petite Sirah. It presents lifted, high-toned aromas of purple fruits, chaparral, and sage with notes of bacon fat. A rich, luxurious texture is enveloped by refreshing acidity. The cool-climate Syrah and Grenache bring added texture and contrast, resulting in a food friendly Petite Sirah blend that brings you back for more.
