This is a remarkably good Petite Sirah for the price, especially considering the snobbishness with which we approached it. (A good wine from Ripon, California? Ha!) This wine had pleasant, jammy blackberry flavors as well as good weight and balance. Fruit-filled finish with only a vestige of pruniness from the ripe fruit. Not complex, but definitely an excellent buy for an everyday red. - WB team 2006-03-11
