Vintage Notes
The North Coast AVA extends north from San Francisco and includes some of America's most distinctive wine regions. The region is defined by its cool maritime air, morning fog and high elevations. Annual rainfall is also higher than many other wine regions. These conditions are idea for growing quality grapes to turn into premium wine.
Tasting Notes
Brass Tacks Petite Sirah is an opulent wine offering flavors of blackberry, vanilla and hints of black pepper. Well-integrated tannins lead to a smooth, balanced finish.
Accolades
85 points
"A good, rugged Petite Sirah, with the bigtime fruit and heavy tannins the variety is known for. Just bursts across the palate with blackberries, plums, cassis and peppery, leathery notes."
