As would be expected, this Petite Sirah is very dark. Like many good Lodi reds it is nice and smooth. With long legs and an earthy nose, this Petite attracts attention after the first sip.
We found it to have mild tannins and there was a slight peppery taste at the end. Overall, the wine did very well with only aeration.
What they say: “With touches of fig, cocoa and licorice Maggio Petite Sirah has a very interesting and lingering finish. Maggio is made by Oak Ridge Winery, the oldest operating winery in Lodi, California. This goes great with chicken or beef fajitas, as well as any steak.”
