winemaker john kinney blends 50% cabernet sauvignon from galles vineyard with 50% del arroyo vineyard petite sirah, trying to take advantage of the cab's floral, herbal notes and the petite's concentration and wall of tannins. he has largely succeeded. this dark-black wine is very much full of intense cherry and structured tannins and leathery spice. petite sirah lovers will particularly swoon.
