Petite Sirah grown in the Dunnigan Hills produces the full-bodied, well-structured wine expected from this distinct varietal. This deeply colored red wine delivers on the aromatics: lots of sweet, brambly blackberry and saddle leather. The flavors are an intense mix of boysenberry, plum and blackberry jam, vanilla spice and nutmeg. The grape’s natural juiciness is mouth filling and a nice counter point to the dense tannins. Matchbook Petite Sirah is delicious on its own yet has the structure to stand up to grilled lamb chops, slow-roasted ribs or a spicy chili.
