Barra of Mendocino Petite Sirah

Deep, dark ruby in color, this wine presents aromas of hearty blackberry, earth, and tobacco notes. The complex yet elegant full-bodied palate consists of black plum, anise, and pomegranate, with subtle hints of toasted caramel and raw cocoa.

The Barra family has a long ancestral history as growers of fine wine grapes, beginning in France and Italy, then migrating to California (Mendocino County) in the early 1900's. All of the grapes for this wine were estate grown and handpicked from family owned vineyards. The Barra family believes that their organic viticulture practices, coupled with rich soils and cool climate of the Mendocino appellation, make the greatest contribution to the excellence of this wine. Enjoy, and salute!
