2016 Mettler Family Vineyards Petite Sirah Lodi

#31 Top 100 Cellar Selections: "Wine doesn't get much deeper in color or more concentrated in fruit flavor than this. The black color goes to smoky red on the rim, while the aroma is rife with blackberry, licorice, sweet oak and black pepper. The palate boasts plump blackberry, soft blueberry and dark chocolate flavors. Fans of bold, full-bodied and saturated reds are going to love this. Best through 2030." Review Date: November 2019
