Winemaker Notes
Petite Sirah is the leading grape of the 2017 Ingenuity and future vintages. It is still the “Paso Roblean Rhone Blend," but with a bit more identity, purpose and well, Petite-Sirah-ness.

"Dense, detailed and dark aromas of purple fruit and flowers meet with cocoa dust, cardamom and shaved truffle on the intoxicating nose of this bottling. Expertly polished tannins cradle flavors of cassis, delicate fudge and lilac, proving utterly rich and mouth-filling while bone dry and savory"
Jeb Dunnuck, 96 pts
"More iron, ground pepper, charred meats, and tapenade notes emerge from the 2018 Syrah Block B, a rich, powerful, yet focused and elegant Syrah that does everything right. Offering plenty of chalky minerality, ripe, building tannins, and a great finish, this brilliant Syrah will keep for at least a decade. The wine is 100% Syrah that was mostly destemmed (28% whole clusters) and spent 19 months in 82% new French oak. "
