Switchback Ridge 2023 Petite Sirah

Peterson Family Vineyard Napa Valley California
The 2023 Petite Sirah from Switchback Ridge is a bold and powerful expression of the varietal, crafted from 100% Petite Sirah sourced from the Peterson Family Vineyard in Calistoga, Napa Valley. With 67% New Block and 33% Old Vine fruit, the wine was aged for 18 months in 100% French oak, yielding a deeply concentrated and richly layered profile. On the nose, it opens with intense aromas of blackberry, blueberry, and ripe plum, accented by preserved fruit and a subtle hint of black pepper. The palate delivers a dense, mouth-coating experience, bursting with dark fruit flavors and supported by dusty, well-integrated tannins that lend structure without sacrificing finesse. The finish is remarkably smooth and refined, showcasing the wines depth and elegance. SP10-12
