Discover the bold elegance of the Ridge Vineyards Lytton Estate Petite Sirah 2017, a premium California red wine crafted from sustainably grown estate vineyards in Sonoma County’s Dry Creek Valley.
This full-bodied Petite Sirah wine features deep, purplish-black hues and captivating aromas of black pepper and violets. The 2017 vintage benefitted from replenishing winter rains, followed by a warm August that concentrated the flavours and complexity of the fruit. A touch of Zinfandel wine from a neighbouring block softens the tannins, creating a beautifully balanced structure.
On the palate, expect rich, layered notes of ripe plum and fig, supported by well-integrated tannins and a long, mineral-driven finish. Barrel-aged for 12 months in a combination of new and seasoned American oak wine barrels, this vintage was fermented using native yeasts and crafted with minimal intervention to express the vineyard's natural character.
Whether you are building your cellar or looking for a premium red wine for special occasions, this estate-grown Petite Sirah promises to age gracefully for up to 15 years.
