Description
Known and loved for its extraordinary inky color and full-bodied favors, Petite Sirah has become a staple in the Epiphany lineup. Blueberry, blackberry, plum, baking spices, smoked meat and tar aromas cannot be contained within the glass. Rich and balanced, this Petite Sirah will flood the palate with dark fruit favors, dark chocolate, cinnamon and grilled herbs with a touch of vanilla coming through on the finish.
Petite Sirah is at its best when paired with richer, more fatty foods or bold exotic spices and herbs. Try with chicken in mole sauce, beefstroganoff, an aged gouda or blue cheese. If looking for a vegetarian option, sautéed mushrooms orstuffed peppers would hold up beautifully to this show-stopper
