The signature blueberry nose of our Shell Creek Vineyards petite sirah is once
again present in this vintage.
Complementing the blueberry is a subtle cinnamon and black pepper spice.
Our 2005 Paso Robles petite sirah is big and juicy in the mouth, with lots of
dark berry fruit and well balanced tannins.
This wine really opens up in the glass and lingers on the palate.
