2018 PORTALUPI L VENTURI VINEYARD PETITE SIRAH

“This full-bodied wine is serious, powerful and age-worthy. The warm layer of fine-grained tannins that cloaks the enticing woodsmoke, game and blackberry flavors now will melt with time and bring out even more complexity. Best from 2025.”

94 Points

“Delve deep into this wine’s brooding purple color. It offers up a rich aroma and flavor of blackberry jam, cocoa pastry, with an ample mouth-filling roundness. Your palate is enriched with full bodied flavors. Substantial tannins are silky and smooth with a velvety texture that fills your glass leaving you breathless.”
