Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Widely produced in California and usually blended with Zinfandel to add structure, Petite Sirah does very well as a stand-alone variety in Mexico; L.A. Cetto, in particular, has been extremely successful with the variety. Dense purple in colour, it offers black pepper and tea notes leading to an impressive, well-rounded finish. My note: Blackberry liqueur-like concentration of wonderful flavour. This is a staggeringly good wine for the money. Got parties or weddings coming up? Here’s your wine. Food matches: spicy black bean dishes, steak-and-cheese enchiladas.
