B Cellars B Cellars Petite Sirah Frediani Vineyard, USA, California, Napa Valley, Calistoga

Still incredible. Intense , deep purple, full of fruit.

Deep, dark, intense wine. Just terrific.

Purchased direct from B Cellars years ago upon release. Was a member until they moved to Oakville. Big tart nose up front. Dense tars, deep black, lots of oak: Too much. Chocolate, UG, oak, UG. 4 hours later: Big tarry spice. Full palate, unctuous, dark blackberry, tar, coal, tobacco, spice, cocoa: Delish. 7 hours in: Big, massive, delicate, seamless black cherry, ripe black berry, dust, tobacco, tar, spcies, long, elegant. Very well made. Quality.

OK, yes, this was pleasurable to drink...however, felt it was over-extracted and maybe over-oaked and I lost what I love so much about a great PS. I wouldn't search this one out but also would try to get a large pour if someone was serving it.

Wow what an intensely rich and terrific wine. Almost black in color full of dried berries and great finish.

Wonderfully dark and complex.

This is a monster petite. It may be the darkest wine I've seen, it's very opaque with a deep garnet color just on the edge. Lovely dark berries intertwined with tobacco, leather, graphite and a touch of charcoal.
