Noble Petite Sirah High Valley, Lake County 2007

Hillside vineyard of volcanic soils looking over Clear Lake, an hour north of Napa Valley. 100% Petite Sirah. Now 9 years old, its slowly yielding its firm tannins and showing big, bold fruit. But that's not all...slight Rhone Valley-like notes of tobacco, black olive and garrigue give it dimension. Long finish of berry, spice and soil. 336 cases made.
