Tasting - Crane Lake Petite Sirah 2013

Crane Lake Petite Sirah 2013
California, USA
$5.95

Vintage Cellar Tasting Notes: "Shows a certain rustic simplicity now, with youthfully jammy flavors of blackberries, cherries and currants, sprinkled with cocoa and pepper and wrapped into dusty tannins."

I was a big fan of the rosy color this wine presented and the beautiful floral bouquet of it. However, it was very dry to the taste which very much turned me off. I tried again with the sniff and sip, but still I found it unpleasant. As my first of the Petit Syrah variety, this wine did not set a good stage, but I would like to try others for comparison.
